the miracle of the rose [2015]

about

a very old photocopy I had made of a short passage of the work wedged in a photo album from the 80s. In it Genet considers the mastery of time through the performance of gestures with infinite slowness - that "Eternity flows into the curve of a gesture". This text on the time-altering nature of solitary confinement forms the basis of my work for The Sound Collectors. The text itself - read by Australian/French artist Emmanuelle Zagoria - becomes the gesture that is curved in time. The spoken phrases are transduced for the two percussionists into gestures exploring their cadence and timbre via varied instruments and notational approaches.
