Walk is part of a series of films exploring the experience of being in London at night. It was made with a group largely comprised of strangers over a 12-hour period, overnight from sunset to sunrise. The process involved informal discussions about participants' experiences of the city, and a narrative was formed from these. This was then performed part live action and part poetic voiceover.
The first film in the series can be seen here.
Edwin was invited to make the work during the Midnight Run, a night-time cultural event created by writer and artist Inua Ellams, as part of UNESCO's International Year of Light.
