Deeper - Ameena Green - No Noise -18.07.2024- Apr 2026

No phones. No whispers. No shuffling of programs. No ambient hum of expectation.

Then a bus drives by. The spell breaks. But the fracture remains. Deeper - Ameena Green - No Noise -18.07.2024-

Green’s work comes at a specific cultural tipping point. We are living through the era of the “dual screen,” the 24/7 news cycle, the infinite scroll. Noise has become a weapon of mass distraction. In her artist’s statement for Deeper , Green quotes the Canadian composer R. Murray Schafer: “The modern ear is a sewer.” She wants to unclog it. No phones

The room is half-empty, but not in the way that suggests failure. It is half-empty by design. On the evening of July 18th, 2024, at an unmarked warehouse space in East London, thirty-seven people sit on simple grey cushions. They have signed a waiver. Not for physical harm, but for something far more unsettling: they have agreed to no noise . No ambient hum of expectation

As the audience files out into the wet London night, no one speaks. They don’t look at their phones. They stand on the pavement, blinking, listening to the rain hit the awnings. For a few precious seconds, the whole world feels like Deeper .

“I’m not anti-music,” she clarifies, wrapping her hands around a lukewarm tea. “I’m anti-sedation. We use noise to fill the void. ‘Deeper’ is about jumping into the void and realizing the void isn’t empty. It’s full of you . And most people are terrified of that.”
