about

And in the silence between the notes,
in the radiant nothingness,
we recognise ourselves again.
Not as you or me,
but as the one, ancient dream
that pauses for a moment
to smile at its own echo.

‘Somnial Fields’ opens the gate to an inner galaxy – a space that only exists when the eyes are closed. Here, in the endless liminal state between dream and unconsciousness, sound is formed not from matter, but from the pure memory of light. Each drone becomes a fragment of a star that was never born. Each vibration is a wave that glides through the sleeping body, into landscapes that only exist behind the eyelids.
The piece ‘The Wonderful World Behind Closed Eyelids’ marks the threshold: a slow awakening in a world without time. No pulse, only the distant echo of a universal dream observing itself. It is a journey through somnambulistic fields of fog, through sleep parables of darkness and inner light – like a cosmos that plunges inward instead of expanding outward.
