This new piece of work takes the theme of my original work for 'Hoeren ist Sehen' - 'to hear is to see' - the sound of water. In this case it is the Libyan Sea west of Paleochora, where the beach has been my outdoor studio for six months. The labyrinth of Cretan mythology can be found all over the island because of the action of water creating channels through the soft limestone rock. At the seashore strange sounds like bellies rumbling are created. A narrative word painting of a walk along the shore, a whispered reflection on unconscious/ancestral voices and the sound of the sea are the elements I have brought together.
