"Welcome to the Wonderground!" The Telegraph

Enter a powerful constellation of fireflies, whispers, murmurs and sighs; a magnificent roar for a fairer, safer and more equal world.

WE ARE WARRIORS is a sound and light installation in the incredible surroundings of Bristol’s Redcliffe Caves, a human-made network of caverns and catacombs that run underneath the city. Acting like a beacon calling people in, We Are Warriors contains thousands of tiny flickering lights and the voices of 130 women and girls from Bristol aged 8-80.

“A reclamation of a city's darkest spaces, for all those whose voice has ever been silenced.”

As you enter, add your light to the growing constellation, in tribute to anyone who has ever felt their voice or presence muffled or suppressed.

The soundscape was developed in workshops with diverse women from our city run by Breathing Fire Black Women's Playback Theatre Company, produced and created by In Between Time, commissioned by Bristol Women’s Voice.

People who participated were from: Bristol and Avon Chinese Women’s Group, Bristol Drugs Project, Montpelier High School, Eastwood Park Women’s Prison, Gloucester Road Women’s Institute, Integrate UK, Redmaid’s Junior School and the Wellbeing Group at Wellspring Healthy Living.

"IBT invites us into other people’s worlds – and in doing so switches on new lights within our own." The Guardian

WHAT OUR AUDIENCES SAY

“I loved adding myself into the exhibition with my own light.”

“I liked the way that I could move through the space, as if the sound moved with me.”

“Alive and quiet. Primal and still. Tender and wild. Raw and expansive.”

What to expect.
