"Bedtime & West provided a real highlight to Krankenhaus Festival 2024. As the night turned dark, the magic appeared, and everyone who visited was spellbound. Hypnotic and beautiful, eveyone raved about their experience. Thoroughly recommended!"
- Krankenhaus Festival 2024
We are an artistic duo who combine laser art, projection and immersive audio with the irregularity and unpredictability of nature. We create multisensory installations in forest clearings, aiming to invoke a sense of serenity and wonder, to entrance the audience into a blissful waking dream. Our work is narrative driven and the stories we tell are a combination of original text written by us, re-telling of traditional folk tales or the work of authors who inspire us (with permission)
The themes are centred around interconnections with nature and the modern world, the mysterious, the mythical and the unknown, and staying up way too long past ones’ bedtime. Above all we love the night because it extends a special kind of splendour to the perception of light, sound and colour.
Sophia West is a multimedia visual artist based in Scotland
Darling, Bedtime is a poet and a sound designer born in Poland, currently living in the south of England.
We met at a Scottish festival of creativity in September 2023 and immediately bonded over our mutual obsession with trees. Since then, we have taken our work to several festivals all over the UK.
