ARTIST Ever Orchid

Ever Orchid

Lines and sounds... The drawings usually have an abstract form using dip pen, quills or graphite on organic materials, such as stones, hand made paper, leaves, metal, wood and leather. Sometimes photographs are also used on the context that the pictured image has an information or memory of its own and will interact with the abstract line worked on top of it. The same applies to the organic materials. In music, the process is similar. Using several natural or artificial soundscapes as a background or "canvas", notes from real or artificial instruments, abstract poetry, and voice melodies – they all merge in together as drawing tools. In an organic search of mantra textures through the voice, the minimalism is expressed where the work is stripped down to its most fundamental features. Repetitive harmonic choirs are slowly built into a creccendo until the song reaches its peak, and the drawings also manifest this minimal form, as their lines repeat over and over, where they are a basic structure for an image – until it gives form to a larger mass - like in the song. A mosaic of voices is slowly built with the melody, as lines are drawn side by side in visual works until the accumulation brings a finished figure. To bring the intention, as an open vortex of inspiration, always connecting with new energies and bringing them into form. The rhythm, the repetition in something that is on the verge to be hypnotic, shamanic, and communicating with something else... Whichever artists the work can be identified with, as influences, references, parameters or whatsoever - there are some who bring examples of pure sound manifested as music, if with the right intention; where melodies can float and happen independently of its creator, can exist as a being apart, without frames, recipes, pre-conceived ideas or predictable forms and ends.
