A Conversation.

I created this piece alongside Wayne McManmon, for the collaborative project ‘Art Feeds’ an initiative run by Kildare Arts Collective in Spring 2020.

The piece itself alludes to a conversation in time. The soundscape unfolds from natural noises to layers of musical tones representing the establishment of new energy after a time of quietness and ease. While the visuals illustrate natural organisms being reassembled over time through stop motion animation - conveying a sense of structures being pieced back together. 

Both the sound and visuals play homage to the reconnection to nature during times of uncertainty and convey a sense of repetition similar to that of daily life. 

The artwork is a conversation between musician and artist, and between human and nature, with a new beginning in sight.
