buds have spoken b(l)ack. 5'38''. 2009. a soundscape / performed text in tribute to the work of lorna graves, visual artist whose work came from the land, and was produced outdoors if possible, allowing the elements to leave their traces on her work. in response i have made a soundmap overlayered with a text spoken / whispered / chanted etc to create a landscape that transcends the recognisable, to find the magical.
