Flood Plans

As our environment faces irrevocable change, Jo Hellier and Yas Clarke attempt to reconcile the uncomfortable position of being human in the midst of human-caused climate change. Through subtle and monstrous sounds and small, sometimes violent actions, Flood Plans looks for a way to meet our landscape and understand our place within it.

Jo is an artist working with performance, installation, film and sound. Currently her work is concerned with ecologies in the widest sense, looking at natural ecosystems and comparing them to human structures. She devised Flood Plans with Yas Clarke, an experimental musician and sound designer. They both like work that allows them to see something in a new way or discover new aspects of feelings that they thought they already knew.

Flood Plans was supported by Arts Council England, Interval, Solo Contemporary Performance Forum and BAC. It was presented as part of New Bloods Platform, supported by In Between Time and Bristol Ferment, for IBT15 International Festival of Performance.
