Explore the Barbican’s Conservatory in an immersive sound experience reflecting on our relationship with nature at a time of climate crisis.
Abundant greenery and trickling water feature alongside concrete, steel and glass in a programme challenging us to listen. The brutalist greenhouse plays host to performances from Quinta, Laura Moody, Abstruckt, Yshani Perinpanayagam, Katherine Tinker, Thanos Polymeneas-Liontiris, Linda Jankowska, Matthew Bourne, Marcus Vergette and the London Triangle Orchestra, each presenting creative responses to the climate emergency.
Journey through the Conservatory’s tropics as unconventional instruments take centre stage; from single use plastic and aeolian harps played by the wind to triangles made from the steel skeleton of the Barbican.
Each performance will run for approximately two hours.
