Below is a collected portfolio of work completed by Mesh: Julia Pond and Manuela Albrecht.

BRED (2021-present)

BRED is an interactive installation rethinking value and productivity. Participants are ‘hired’ and get to try our unique working methods…moving their bodies, getting up close with bread dough. BRED has been supported by Pavilion Dance Southwest, and commissioned by TripSpace London, North Devon Council and the Science Museum’s Museums and Industry: Long Histories of Collaboration research project. Initial research developed at Trinity Laban, London.

BODY POLYPHONIES (2022)

Body Polyphonies was an installation exploring micro-politics of support and integration. Inviting tactile and embodied relationships to the mushroom mycelium network as a way to understand its stable networks of collaboration, the experience invites reflection on the resonances between giving and receiving physical support and the intricacies of belonging.

Entangled Drawing (2024-present)

Participatory action engaging embodied practice and fungi to unravel new modes of responding to climate change

Outside/In (2016)

Outside / In was created in collaboration with Suiko McCall through a process of meditation, movement, video and conversation. This video was originally performed with live movement at the Shambhala Center London.
Music: Meredith Monk

Bach Motets (2012)

Bach Motets was a choreographed concert commissioned by early music enseble the Musicall Compass with ACE funding and performed at St. John’s Smith Square. I aimed not to visualise the music but to bring the sound and movement of bodies together in an expanded choreographic sense. Early Music Review wrote that “the choreography was flowing and coherent…like a couple of PiĆ©tas.”
