Synopsis:
The works of three artists who stubbornly refuse to limit themselves in their choices of media and genres are consolidated here into a total work of art: lyrical texts by the French poet and mathematician Jacques Roubaud serve as a basis for the light installations by the German artist Rebecca Horn; and the CD contains sequences by the New Zealand-born jazz musician Hayden Danyl Chisholm, now living in Cologne. In 1997, Jacques Roubaud wrote 53 poems for Rebecca Horn. Inspired by this poetry, Rebecca Horn created sculptures of light. Words wander through the dark space, weave through the murkiness, forming an intertwined network, a firmament of text. In a bath of black water the poems reflect each other, dissolving within the waves, and new signs arise. A song in dialogue with a whale, composed and performed by Hayden Danyl Chisholm, accompanies these transformations.
