New Exhibition Life and Land opening in Thailand in collaboration with Warin Lab Nomad.

Life and Land uses analogue photography to explore the intersections of climate changes and health in Ban Nong Tao over the course of a year.

Using multiple photography processes, and plants that grow on Pgak’yau land as bio-developers, the exhibition explores the interconnectedness of climate change, food sovereignty, land rights and cultural health.

Life and Land brings the act of image creation into direct dialogue with its own site, following the Pgak’yau philosophy that everyone has wind, air, fire, soil, rocks, sand, stars, in their body. We are part of those elements.

First presented in Ban Nong Tao, the exhibition will travel to Bangkok as part of Warin Lab Nomad’s mission to support mobile, environmentally engaged, and community-rooted artistic practices, activating different sites through context-specific presentation.

Life and Land by Lazy Man Coffee (TH) and Invisible Flock (UK) has been developed in partnership with Wellcome and will also be displayed as part of the Wellcome Photography Prize 2027 exhibition in the UK.

We are thrilled to share that we have received news of a successful ACE application to tour our award winning installation Microtonal to Northern audiences across 4 venues in 2026.

All of the world’s problems are derived from a lack of listening - Ustad Naseeruddin Saami

Microtonal is an installation comprising 200 borindos - a clay wind instrument from the desert of Sindh, Pakistan. The work is a collaboration with the artists standing between it and a form of cultural extinction - Allah Jurio, the only remaining craftsman who makes the borindo and Faqir Zulfiquar, the only known musician to play them.

Utilising innovative technologies Microtonal is an audio reactive, algorithmically driven installation of 200 borindos. The work amplifies otherwise imperceptible sine waves creating a chorus of these 200 rare instruments playing autonomously. Microtonal explores intangible cultural heritage (as both traditional and living expression) , live knowledge transmissions, and intercultural dialogue.

Further details around partners, venues, dates and surrounding activity to be confirmed and released. Discover more about Microtonal here: https://invisibleflock.com/projects/microtonal
