Craft Work by Selina Thompson

Living in a caravan on the coast of Ireland, a woman comes face-to-face with fear. Written and performed by Selina Thompson.

Living in a caravan on the east coast of Ireland, a woman comes face-to-face with fear.

An original short work for radio written and performed by Selina Thompson.

Selina Thompson is an artist and performer based in Leeds. Her work is playful, participatory and intimate, focused on the politics of identity, and how this defines our bodies, lives and environments. She has made work for pubs, cafes, hairdressers, toilets, galleries, theatres - and now radio.

Past work includes 'Salt', where she retraced one of the routes of the Transatlantic Slave Triangle on a cargo ship across the Atlantic, and 'Chewing The Fat', her own version of a midnight feast: somewhere between the confessions made over coffee at weight-watchers, and the sloppy drunken story-telling that accompanies that 3AM kebab.

Producer: Eliza Lomas

First broadcast on 成人快手 Radio 4 in February 2019.
