Helen Cammock @ Cubitt Gallery

Shouting in Whispers is a solo exhibition by Helen Cammock. Based on research, found materials and conversations she creates intersectional dialogues that look at individual and collective power, questioning the role of the individual, asking us to consider where we sit within the political and social spaces we inhabit: “I have a role in this, as I believe we all do”.
Her practice explores history and storytelling through layered, fragmented narratives using a range of mediums including video, photography, installation, print and performance. She interrogates the ways stories are told, the hierarchy of histories and who is rendered invisible and therefore unacknowledged. With multiple registers of the voice – singing, speaking, reading poetry – as well as multiple voices, Cammock ventriloquises; crossing time and place to create associations between cultural and political moments, questioning and creating new meaning through her utterances, and identifying linkage from past to present.
