Splendid collaborative work
between Gustaf Hildebrand and Amanda Votta, Lacus Somniorum emerged as a mutual
desire to convey a suggestive concept of what lies
hidden and unseen by the
eyes of modern civilization--beneath the waves in murky chasms, or perhaps in
places not anchored within our concept of reality. Airy flutes and choirs
hover above sometimes distant, rumbling sound textures, hinting of corroded machinery and unseen
presences but also emphasizing a
sense of serenity and peace of mind. The underlying concept is not fear of
the
unknown, but rather of
a hidden
beauty within those
places
where none of us will ever venture. Edition of 1000
copies
In fold out gatefold cardboard sleeve. Released on Cyclic Law and available
