"Saltwater Soul" is an experimental audio documentary that’s really close to my heart. It dives into the world of sea swimming in Brighton, seen through the eyes of a passionate swimmer. The documentary mixes the peaceful sounds of the ocean with the lively atmosphere of protests against pollution by British water companies.

Creating this piece was a personal journey for me. I even started writing poetry for the first time, which you’ll hear throughout the documentary. It’s a mix of the calm and joy of sea swimming with the serious issue of environmental threats. My hope is that it not only shares the unique experience of sea swimming but also highlights the importance of protecting our waters.

WHAT’S NEW?

I’m thrilled to share that my short audio documentary, Saltwater Soul, was recently showcased to an audience of around 200 people at In The Dark’s What’s New? event. It was an honor to see the piece selected and presented alongside an array of creative and experimental audio from emerging producers.
