How do visual and sonic forms shape our understanding of a place? How do memories unfold when we encounter these forms in new configurations? In this episode, Hoor Al Qasimi speaks with Turner Prize winning artist Lubaina Himid and Magda Stawarska, known for her practice of ‘inner listening’, about their long-standing collaborative practice. Together, they discuss concepts of restlessness, belonging and recognition evoked by the sea, as well as the sounds and images it carries. Tune in to hear more about Himid and Stawarska’s creative process and  how presenting their work in Sharjah has revealed new layers of meaning within it.
