Dreadnought
Working with the atmospheres and structures of classical music pieces; theme, variation,
repetition and simultaneously chaotic elements; noise, feedback, distortion, using familiarity
as a springboard to instability, Dreadnought navigates a path between opposite poles. An attempt
to create order and its inevitable undoing. Resonating through multiple layers, an interplay of
animated relationships between space, sound and body.
