“bare below” - infection control policy in nursing requires staff to be bare below the elbows, so time must be referenced in other ways. This encapsulates the chaos of trying to meet demands of the job without enough time or resources. This collage aims to disorient us by combining the arms and hands of the traditional time telling device with the need for more (staff, money, resource, time.)
Emily Serraillier - Is a mental health worker and photographer from South London. Follow more of their beautiful photography here.
Colin Shea – is an audio and documentary film producer who specializes in science and history content, and has produced work for National Geographic, the Smithsonian, and various NPR affiliates.
Mel Bakewell - makes audio on Kaurna land. Her practice spans audio journalism, documentary and radio art. She works for All the Best, Australia's flagship audio storytelling program from fbi.radio, and has made work for the Community Radio Network, The Wheeler Centre, and ABC Radio National.
In the piece Mel references the Australian children's educational program Play School. She writes, "they had a 'clocks' segment, which introduced time with some clocks in the shape of a rocket, and a flower (among others), to generations of kids between 1976 - 1999. The segment featured music by composer Janko Nilovic, which you can hear in this piece. The clocks would spin and reveal a diorama above or below the clock - lions, clotheslines, islands. The whackadoo music adds a kind of tragicomic buffoonery to the post-partum period I've tried to nod to here, where nothing holds its edges.”
Emerald Mosley - is an artist and designer, based between London and Brighton. Follow @goldtopgirl.
M. Cristina Marras - is a sound explorer who tells stories that transcend traditional boundaries, challenging the conventional relationship between creator and audience.
Anna Van Dine - is an audio producer based in Vermont.
Renee Jones - is an audio maker and visual artist. In this piece “Clocks track time. Precious time spent with precious people. But at any given moment clocks across the world are tracking separate times. The people living in these times are experiencing time and moments differently”.
