‘This three-part performance deals with the spaces of rupture and dissociation (physical or social) as places of encounter with the Self. The journey towards adulthood and overcoming trauma: when systemic injury inexorably intertwines with family roots.
I worked from ghostly video archives linked to Nature and my childhood, poetic texts written in the midst of heartbreak, accompanied by an experimental soundscape, and finally I wrote a song. The floating moment between the realisation that a situation is painful and the courageous decision to leave it for a happier future is captured by a saturated, electronic rock production.’
