about

a route to the roots

if we understand time as cyclic, a route is not a straight line from one point to another, it is just one of the many possible ways to depart, to explore, to return.
conversely, a root is the beginning of something growing, the foundation of something becoming and changing with the seasons, the consequence of the spreading of seeds and the recycling of the dead that invites fertility.
if there’s no boundary between within and without, every breath is both the root and the route of a sound or a silence
if there’s no end and no beginning, a route to the roots is an invitation both to explore the confines of life and to be at home inside oneself

a route to the roots



a route doesn’t have to be

a straight line from one point to another

it is simply one of the many possible ways

to depart, to explore, to return

a root is the beginning of something growing

the foundation of something becoming

and changing with the seasons

the consequence of the spreading of seeds

and the recycling of the dead that invites fertility

every breath contains roots for a possible sound

drawn from the unlimited

offered to the unlimited

to the silence that invites

another breath

another sound

no boundaries between within and without

no end and no beginning, just a route to the roots
