Using recorded interviews between the artists and people living in Scotland who share their Kenyan and Iraqi heritage ‘Listening for love’ proposes that listening is a conduit to love and through an embodied sense of hearing we learn. Through the processes of collecting, making, sharing and preserving migration stories in audio archives, the artists (re)connect and (re)create a new space of belonging for themselves, the participant interviewees and the invited disparate audience.
