Details
An artist and a poet with Gujarati heritage use speech, film, music, physical theatre and comedy to explore communication and language. Visual artist Hetain Patel is a northerner from Bolton. Poet Shane Solanki is a southerner from London. Both share a Gujarati heritage, but neither can speak the language very well. This is their starting point. They try to match patterns from their daily lives with those from their guilty pleasures from pop culture. In this collaborative work in progress, the artists use humour to explore various modes of communication and mistranslation.
