Brookfield Meadow - Launch Event

Brookfield Meadow - Launch Event

I want to make work that connects people to the world around them ... encourages people to experience places like this more deeply
— Ellie Wilson

Listen to the River Ching was launched at Brookfield Meadow on Wednesday 6 May and we were delighted by how many people popped by during the afternoon and the lovely response to the music. People of all ages took the opportunity to slow down, pause for a moment to listen and wander by the river. This project is hyper local for me and there really is a lot of love for this district in NE London.

Some visitor feedback

‘Lovely to see this previously neglected corner come to life. The music and words are beautiful and moving. Thank you for a wonderful project’

‘Beautiful moving music … the most incredible way to connect with nature’

‘What a lovely thing to have on our doorstep. Thank you – the music is lovely’

‘Music was magical and so lovely to sit on a toadstool and listen under the trees by the river’

‘Made me experience the place in a different way’
