My practice explores the underwater world of our rivers and seas. I used a hydrophone to listen to sub-surface sounds and a GoPro to capture visual underwater footage, to accompany my sound recordings. During this project my understanding has changed from having a romantic perception of water to realising the extent of pollution. I aim to take my audience on a journey of discovery through sound and film.
