about

Eidolon -
A spirit-image of a living or dead person; a shade or phantom look-alike of the human form.

This release has two connected themes -

In 2020 I created a triptych called Life Mask, which tried to convey in sound and image, my nightmare that was caused by a viral illness. This is in some ways the follow up to that collection. At times, I feel like an Eidolon, a spectre of what I was, sleepwalking during days, tossed metaphorically by winds and sea, visited by nightmares at night.

However, since 2020, I have also been documenting the painfully slow decline of my husband with cognitive impairment, which will be a long term project. Eidolon is also a dark and meditative exploration of the split between the physical recognisable person with the 'shadow being' that is increasingly taking over.
