Your Den, 2021

Seeking to connect while shielding in the pandemic, Sop invited five chronically ill, shielding comrades to respond to the audio work ‘The Den 1’ by describing their own ‘dens’, whether that be in a lake, under a blanket or the soil, or a memory. This pamphlet, which expands into a video with audio recordings of the texts made by the writers, collects texts from Irene Revell, Sarah Porter, Ollie Simpson, Zuleika Lebow and Camille Francis Lerner.
