ABOUT THE WORK

​

kal - eh’   -o'  is the first iteration of an ongoing sound based research project coinciding with a physical awakening. The composition has been developed from an improvised vocal session inside an echo chamber, a call and response intuiting and eliciting deep rooted sounds from within the belly of beastly horrors. The resulting work is a cathartic instigation of dormant fear and release of energy in a movement towards the distillation of a sounding body.
