Details | |
| Mother Tongue is based on audio recordings of four generations of women within Greenwell's family: grandmothers, mother and aunts, cousins, sisters and nieces. Through the stripping back of language into sound textures, Greenwell examines how structure, dialect, intonation and articulation can be a learned/inherited experience. | |
