Mary O'Neill will be confined in The Gallery DMU Leicester from 19th - 25th April. This project asked artists, writers, and performers from different continents to join in a discussion of how their thinking has altered over the last year as a result of their confinement. Initially the invited participants were asked to go for a walk and record their thoughts.
