The Texture of Air combines LIDAR scans, 16mm film and digital animation to create an archive of stories from two abandoned hospitals in London.
Captured over a period of three years, conversations with staff and patients recorded in laboratories, clinics and chambers unfold as vignettes within the film. Each story is set against a music score composed and recorded across the empty hospital buildings.
The film was made in collaboration with The Bartlett School of Architecture, On the Record and UCLH.
