Sonia Levesque

Hi Bab (2025)

Sonia Levesque is an audiovisual artist, thinker and realtime filmmaker based in the West Midlands. Via films, virtual installations, poetry/prose and public interventions, Levesque strives to create work which entices others to "commit their own mini acts of creative rebellion" – to self-express and use art as a lens to think critically about their world. Levesque’s film, Hi Bab (2025), was made for the ReelBrum 48-hour challenge in Birmingham. It imagines spirits observing life on Earth, blending monologues, piano and poetry as a love letter to the city. Created in Unreal Engine with custom metahumans and utilising Cesium to bring the animation to life, it is "a nod to those spirits who still occasionally check in on how the Brummies are doing."
