Surface bounce and cycles explores what is underneath the Union Canal – its edges, its depths, the mirage of animals and objects which float under its waters.

Primarily centred around sound, the Hannan’s work employed listening as a means of exploring multiplicity. Through collecting sounds from along the canal – both under and above the water – the work allowed listeners to move through the riverbed of the canal, reassessing their understanding of the natural world’s relationship to the human world.
