A collaborative performance where sound and image are created, performed and mediated by light, water and glass.
A dialogical meeting of Baraka’s radical poetry and Grimes’ free jazz syncopation.
A confrontational and somehow shamanic stance; introspective silences shattered by savage jabs at the strings, whirlwind strums dying into spartan chords
