Laura Guarch

Laura Guarch is a singer, composer, performance maker and workshop leader from Catalonia based in the UK. Her research and practice focuses on creating choral and sonic interventions in public space that challenge social perceptions of place and environment. She creates site-specific and participatory performances, facilitates voice and creativity workshops and sings on a number of London-based choirs, bands and ensembles. She recently presented creative work for Spitalfields Music Open Call, Totally Thames and National Trust and toured her vocal looping project ‘Street Vocals’ widely around Europe. As co-director of the artistic company Convex, she has developed Thalweg, a participatory performance project on river rights that led to a collective singing promenade along the Thames last year. Thalweg invited Londoners in their diversity to reconnect spiritually with their river.
