A web commission produced for Gasworks Gallery in collaboration
with Red Leader Industries.
For this commission, Auad, who is inspired by incidental daily experiences
has developed a work which explores busking on the London Underground.
Auad's interest lies in the relationships between the buskers, their
music, the architecture of the Underground and the experience of
the traveller on the tube. Auad invites the viewer to navigate the
piece which is reminisent of a jukebox, with a layering of film
footage, photographs, lyrics and drawings for each respective 'track'.
This piece is the first in a series of four commissions, which aim
to give artists, who have previously not worked in this medium,
the opportunity of developing an online project.
