Nine poems written during the first nine days of ‘lockdown’ in the UK . Three lines in each poem, nine syllables in each line, creating ‘999’ for the state of emergency and constraint. Set to music for two voices and cello. Songs for strange times. Recording to follow.

The ‘Particles’ series is about the viscosity of air. It sparkles and dances around us, pushing up against the objects that we see; swathing the night in light.

The first in a new series of works about the wind. It designs the shapes of rocks and trees, and whirls the ice in turf digs.
London Life
