All Ball
A meditation on the physical, psychological and communal benefits of basketball in London, initiated by artist and coach Joseph Bond.
All Ball is an ongoing meditation on the physical, psychological and communal benefits of basketball in London. From Turnpike Lane鈥檚 concrete courts to Brixton鈥檚 iconic Ruffhouse, basketball provides a stage for people from diverse backgrounds to commune, carve out and take up space in the capital. Initiated by artist and coach Joseph Bond, All Ball identifies basketball as a conduit through which discussions around mental health, sexuality and public space can thrive.
In this 鈥渁ural exercise鈥, London鈥檚 players, coaches, community workers and artists discuss the sport鈥檚 core value of collaboration, both on and off the court. From a footing drenched with the ball鈥檚 booming thud and staccato squeaks of sneakers on the court, All Ball amplifies the physicality, vernacular and movement-lead language of this forceful, urgent scene.
