'From a single utterance, to the pronounciation of a name and declaration of an idea, the voice is a tool through which we assert our presence in the world. The use of the voice as a means of protest and as a metaphor for self-representation is central to this exhibition. Each of the artists presented elaborates on the dynamic created by the use of words in speech or text, sound as song, power as given and power that is taken away. By bringing together a range of artists working across different creative disciplines, including audio documentary, video, performance, text and sound this exhibition takes a moment to listen to the harmony, and dissonance, of voices arising.' - extracted from introductory text
