Lleisiau Coll – Lost Voices
The Lost Voices Project aims to harness immersive technologies to make Pembrokeshire’s significant historical sites accessible to all. Using AR, and 360° film, it is proposed that the project will bring key locations—such as Haverfordwest Castle or Carew Castle—to life for those unable to visit due to age, disability, or financial barriers, while enriching the experience for onsite visitors.
Leveraging Unreal Engine & photogrammetry, we propose to digitally reconstruct lost or vanished elements of the chosen site, delivering them through an interactive AR platform. This immersive experience is to combine a narrated virtual guide with opportunities for audience-led exploration, allowing visitors to engage with the site’s history in an active and personalised way. AI technology is to be integrated to enable real-time questions and responses, enhancing interactivity and learning.

Examples of Our Work
Phoebe Davies – CIRCA x Dazed
CIRCA x Dazed Class of 2022 screening at Piccadilly Lights (London), Kurfürstendamm (Berlin), K-POP Square (Seoul), and Federation Square (Melbourne).Viscera explores how we conceal, harness and perform our emotions. In this film, Bhebhe&Davies use choreography, sound and text to interrogate the slippery nature of how we express our feelings, with a particular focus on rage and its limits. This work is a development of Bhebhe&Davies’s residency at Wellcome Collection, where they worked alongside performers, dance artists and academics. Their research explored who is entitled to fully express their emotions in different social contexts and how our identities liberate or limit our behaviour. Viscera is shaped by activist, anti-racist and feminist writing, gestures drawn from competitive sports and visceral human experiences. The CIRCA x Dazed Class of 2022 showcases 30 artists work from a global public call-out invited filmmakers + new media creators responding to the theme ‘A Future World’ inspired by the CIRCA 2022 manifesto “And Now We Build Worlds”. Bhebhe&Davies were one of 30 finalists whose artworks were screened on London’s iconic Piccadilly Lights, Berlin, Limes, Kurfürstendamm, Seoul, COEX K-Pop Square and Melbourne, Fed Square.

Keen on the idea of potential and surprises they generally start by painting from direct observation, only to then drift away from the source material and wander in less controlled directions. They are engaging in intuitive processes that allow them to discover figures emerging from the observed shapes; reality getting infused by imagination and memories.
