Soundscapes
Sometimes I record vocal outpourings of the painting which are very experiential and hard to pin down. In many cultures, suppression of buried emotion is prevalent. Release is often likened to an overwhelming altered state and is shunned. I detour this fear with the use of shamanic-style vocals combined with an intuitive language paralleling the dialogue between emotion and inner language. The goal is freedom so couching the feelings in undefinable utterances circumvents the shame inherent in oppression. My art is not only about what happened to me, how it affected me, and who I am but how that culmination can encourage others.
