Hitting the Pavement: Stories From Cities In Flux
Hitting the Pavement – Stories From Cities in Flux is a new international collaboration from Words of Colour and Cocoon Creative Lab, with support from Theatre Peckham. Hitting the Pavement is an artistic exploration of neighbourhoods in the process of gentrification: Brickfields, in Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia), and Peckham, in London (UK). Two teams of artists, based in Kuala Lumpur and South London, will collaborate to create an interdisciplinary response to themes of place, migration, and the soul of a city. The Hitting the Pavement artists are Cocoon Creative Lab founder and writer Adriana Nordin Manan, photographer Amin Kamrani, sound artist Mohammed Rowe, and photographer-poet Jamel Alatise.
