A poem about visualising safety, growth, well being, and forgiveness. Written by ETT Forge Associate Artist, Tanya Muneera Williams with music by Mr. Plexus, this piece was created to accompany a scheme by ETT and Off The Record Bristol, a mental health social movement for young people, to encourage writing to help look after mental health during COVID-19 lockdown.
With this commission, the task was to infuse visuals and a style that matched the beauty of the poem. With Creative Associate, Jennifer Bakst, we agreed on using a striking mix of flashes and glimpses of tonal and nostalgic stock footage matching the tone of Tanya Muneera Williams' prose to create this.
