The Isle is Full of Noises is a sound and animation installation created by Victoria Hume that explores what it is like to hear voices. It is largely based on a workshop held in summer 2016 in Durham with people who hear voices. The workshop reinforced the need to challenge widespread prejudice about voice-hearing, and to assert that not only is this a normal phenomenon, but that ‘we are people, that have lots of other things going on; voice-hearing is just a tiny part of that’.

The piece uses audio clips and drawings from the workshop, as well as original artwork, music and collected sounds. The animation was developed in collaboration with Shannan Taylor, Judy Christian, and Tamsyn Adams.
