Keep your eyes peeled along the seafront for a larger-than-life shell on wheels rolling along the promenade!
Step right up, stick your head inside and listen closely for a chorus of washed-up gossip, tide-ly guarded secrets, and the embarrassing ‘conchfessions’ we’d rather cast out to sea.
This giant mollusk invites you to come out of your shell and leave your serious side on the shore. This is deep-sea confidential stuff.
Created by audio makers Anna de Wolff Evans and Jude Shapiro, Conchfessions is a roaming, interactive sound installation celebrating the joy, absurdity, and sheer silliness of the human experience. Built on a shared love for the unexpected possibilities of sound and chats with strangers, Anna and Jude will bring the intimacy of audio out of its traditional setting and wheel it through the streets of St Leonards-on-Sea.

Anna de Wolff Evans and Jude Shapiro are audio producers and creative collaborators who bonded over a shared love of play, silliness, and the joyful possibilities of sound. Driven by a desire to create accessible, curiosity-led work outside traditional broadcasting bounds, their collaborative practice brings sound art directly into public spaces to ignite unexpected moments of human connection.
