In collaboration with Hackney Wick & Fish Island Community Trust, and Hackney Wick and Fish Island Creative Enterprise Zone, Network commissioned The People Speak to talk to local residents about the Hackney Wick they know.
A mobile Screen Test Booth popped up in the area throughout July 2021, and an open space Talkaoke – a pop up talkshow – was hosted for residents to contribute their ideas for the sustainable and socially inclusive development of the area. Local musicians, lyricists and illustrators will use these contributions to compose a soundtrack and explore the visual identity of Hackney Wick & Fish Island.
Here is an interim video of this engagement.
