A Life, A Presence Like the Air invited audiences to sit and listen to a site specific sound installation, exploring everyday stories of home, housing, family, work and day to day experiences of triumph and tribulation. The experience lasted for approximately 40 minutes, and consisted of site, a built installation, documentary, poetry, print and musical content.

The work was installed in a play area at Waring House, Redcliffe, Bristol, at The Park Community Centre, Knowle West, and in the Vestibules at Bristol City Council.
