LABRUM 'What Carries Us' | Supported by Bowers & Wilkins

One room. Five disciplines. One shared frequency. The film brings together five friends and creative peers who have, in different ways, shaped Foday Dumbuya’ thinking and work. Alec Boateng, music executive and curator, brings an instinct for hearing possibility before it becomes obvious. Peigh Asante, creative director, explores how references, instinct and identity come together to shape a world. Tawiah, artist and performer, brings a voice rooted in emotion, identity and personal experience. Zezi Ifore, broadcaster and cultural commentator, considers how culture moves, who gets to define it and whose stories are carried forward. Yinka Ilori, artist and designer, explores colour, memory, joy and African visual language through the spaces we inhabit. Across one conversation, they explore the sounds, stories, objects and influences that shape us - what we inherit, what we exchange, and what we carry forward. At its heart, What Carries Us asks three simple questions about how we create, experience and connect with the world around us: What do we inherit? What do we exchange? What do we carry forward?
