"Taking place on Halloween, when the veil between the living and the dead is at its thinnest, Becoming the Forest invites you to take part in an audio journey populated by the voices of previous forest dwellers and visitors.
At the threshold to Epping Forest, the tree-clad piece of land filled with stories, rumours and non-human beings, Becoming the Forest presents a sound-based installation at Queen Elizabeth’s Hunting Lodge, celebrating the oncoming winter.
Join past forest dwellers including Boudicca, Jacob Epstein and Algernon Blackwood, as well as the voices of the trees themselves, and expect incantations made up of Ogham and tree DNA sequences, dark folk, beech tree divination, tree-biologists and forest historians, black metal screeches and field recordings of the forest. A special commission by artist Una Hamilton Helle.
The installation will mark the launch of Becoming the Forest 3, an independent zine which looks at how the aesthetic and philosophy of the musical subculture of black metal has become entangled with the topography of the forest. The zine will be available to purchase at Queen Elizabeth's Hunting Lodge for the duration of the installation."
