Rhythm of Life



Musician and artist Biant brought twelve Djembe drums to Collecting Stories and taught us all to tune in to our natural life rhythms.


As we tapped our hands on the drums the smiles grew bigger and the sound grew louder and taps turned in to beats and rhythms.

Biant told us all about his heritage of India and how his family came to live in Nottingham. He spoke about home and traditions and the stories his family would tell.


Did you know that the very British story of the Green Man is found all over the world with Green Men in Egypt and India?


We wonder if our stories might be heard and even told in other countries.


Biant’s story inspired us to tell our own stories of how we came to live and work in Southwell in Newark and across Nottinghamshire.

A chance to share our own intriguing journey and give an audience an insight in to who we are.
