A multi-artform project that explored the impact of World War 1 in Surrey and the hidden stories of local people across the county.

The project included creative writing workshops across Surrey, using spoken word and poetry, led by poet Talia Randall. Sound artist Graham Dowdall created sound work based upon the material gathered through workshops, the archive gathered as part of Surrey in the Great War, A county Remembers project and related field recordings.

The installation was exhibited within the newly refurbished hangar at Brooklands Museum in June 2018, before going on tour between January and February 2019.
