Release
Release is an Arts Council England funded project that shares stories of migration where music has offered a moment of release, created in partnership with Mahboobeh Rajabi an Iranian digital artist. Esther and Mahboobeh ran a series of workshops with writers and asylum seekers offering training and peer support on the creation of podcasts. Release was due to be presented at Light Night in Liverpool as an immersive headphone trail across the city that combined live performance digital projections and a binaural soundtrack. Due to Covid Release was transformed into a short film telling the story of an Irish migrant and a Bosnian refugee. Whispered Tales are looking for a third story that features a current refugee tale where music has offered a moment of release and seek to present Release in its original format in 2021.
