A FUGUE

When making "A FUGUE" I became inspired by the mental spaces of prolonged inertia which would accompany me in my creative blocks, being neurodiverse I often experience spontaneous dips in mental productivity, I would almost completely zone out into this bewildering universe of a dead time. This dead time was a place I projected around my inability to calculate or exist in any sense of time. It felt existentially threatening, yet alluring and strangely meditative.

And proved to be the therapeutic state to mentally prepare me for the lockdown.

This sense of threat and meditation attracted me, as well as the sense of time that occupied these experiences, the dreamscape of A FUGUE was made with this simultaneous purgatory sense of threat and calmness that came about from these inertia experiences.

In a time now where each of our actions become increasingly difficult and silent under by government guideline, this inertia is both our peace and our silence, it is both our space for growing our spirits, while also the blanket which prevents us from speaking. I wanted to share my experiences of this space, and both its darkness and lightness, in the hopes that once we awake from this zone, we may emerge out stronger than before.
