Cosmic Breath installation unites adhans from around the world in central London
Artist Joe Namy presented the multichannel sound installation Cosmic Breath at the Musalla space of the Ibraaz project near Oxford Street — a collection of historical and contemporary recordings of the adhan from Mecca, Jerusalem, Singapore, Khartoum and other places. The work, first shown at the Islamic Arts Biennale in Jeddah in 2023, sounds different in London, according to the author, against the backdrop of rising Islamophobia.
