𝔼𝕊𝕊𝕊𝔼ℕ𝕊𝕊𝕊𝔼 by HOSSEI and NIKI

This music was made for the 𝔼𝕊𝕊𝕊𝔼ℕ𝕊𝕊𝕊𝔼 exhibition and performances at Verge Gallery, 2024.

𝔼𝕊𝕊𝕊𝔼ℕ𝕊𝕊𝕊𝔼 is the morning after, looking for the sea for clarity, caught up in glistening of the sand, sound of a 3000 year old shell, starfish, ꩜ formations, sand dollars, barnacles and heat wave at its core, is all the entity of this island. This work is about the tenacity of the human spirt, taking off the skin and looking at what’s underneath, on this island with a microscope an aquatic ecosystem with micro organisms is revealed, spirts.
