Echo Chamber

Fiona Meadley, Ruth Davey and Dominic Thomas write about an adventurous art project coming soon to Friends House

by Fiona Meadley, Ruth Davey and Dominic Thomas 5th August 2016

Echo Chamber is a new artwork inspired by the stories of world war one conscientious objectors.

At its core are their voices, speaking directly to us. Their stories may shock our modern ear (sharing prison with men about to be executed), are often sad (a family rift never healed), and sometimes strike an unexpected note (a moment of trust between prisoner and guards).
