Alisa Oleva: Sounds Like Home
Guided Tours
Visual Art
Event organiser:
Compass Festival

Sounds Like Home creates sonic connections to distant hometowns through a series of sound stations.

Join one of the collective listening walks to discover these sounds from far away places, reflecting on ideas of migration, home and belonging.

Building on relationships artist Alisa Oleva developed during her residency in Leeds last year, the project began as one-to-one walks with people who moved to Leeds from other countries.

About
Having moved to the UK at the age of 17, Alisa’s artistic practice as a walking artist explores the connection of walking and home-finding when one moves to another country.

Sounds Like Home is part of Compass Festival, a whole month of interactive art across Leeds, unfolding 1–30 November 2024.

Meet outside Black Sheep Coffee, the walk will end in Chapeltown.
