[gentle music] I'm Eleanor McDowall and you're about to hear a radio feature I made in 2019 about the artist Stephen Wright, who spent years transforming every inch of the house he lives in into a work of art.

This is House of Dreams.

When we first met, Stephen was still really, really engulfed by grief.

House of Dreams was made by me, Eleanor McDowall, back in 2019 for BBC Radio 4.

The original music for that doc was created by Jeremy Warmsley using sounds he sampled from marbles, pick-up sticks, a plastic wind-up turtle, an autoharp and a music box, transformed into rhythmic loops and juxtaposed with pianos and the warm sound of the melodica.
