“Artworks… are not there to save us or perfect us (or damn or corrupt us), but rather to complicate things, to create more complex nervous systems no longer subservient to the debilitating effects of clichés, to show and release the possibilities of life.”
— John Rajchman
What if I only had two chords? Could one note be a song? These pieces started as those questions. One layers my sister’s Mandarin lullabies, Latin lines from the Aeneid and a British newsreader describing a blue whale carcass.
