InnerSwell is a project by artists Laima Leyton and Lexy Morvaridi, informed by the collective power of community activism, localised ‘real politics’ of empowerment, and support networks. It exists to amplify localised community work, offer experiences of the creative process, and empower people to create and develop narratives through sound. Exploring memory and sound, InnerSwell uses listening to develop the participants’ creative practice in whatever form it takes, extending beyond activities – such as music – into all realms of the creative arts.

Through the creation of an environment where ideas and stories can be formed and shared through discussion, crafting, collecting and generating sound, InnerSwell offers an accessible experience of the creative process, allowing participants to develop their own practice and build personal narratives through the medium of sound. InnerSwell works towards the production of outcomes tailored for each group.
