[ISEA2000] Artist Statement: THEODORE LOTIS – The sea: blue, deep

Artist Statement

MUSICAL BREAK

THE SEA: A) BLUE- B) DEEP “Bleu” the hum of the bees treated electronically creates the waves of the sea. “Bleu” expresses the joy and the purity of the water. “Profonde” proposes a listening in two levels. The first one is an imaginary perception of the sea. Serene or stormy: the sun sparkles on the water, the colours-frequencies become blurred during the descent, the darkness of the profound. The second is a symbolic perception: the deep of the sea is the cemetery for the shipwrecks and the image of the fecundity, the passage to Hades and the road to new discoveries.
