I envy the earth’s liberties
I’d like to become her and true
Ebbing and flowing, rivers and trees
Oh, to die and to rest in her womb
Oh, the sanctum and the soothe.
Biometric Pressure explores the irony of a tentative approach to the world, when every perception is a different reality belonging entirely to the individual. Biometric Pressures offers its’ audience relief; a chimeric em(body)ment of atmospheric forms, finding peace and oneness with life’s constant state of flux. The weather’s unforgiving mercuriality and omnipresence naturally degrades modern society’s toxic constructs, reducing them to mere tautology. Biometric Pressures creates perspective and dares you to enjoy (rather than fear) our entanglement with ephemerality.
Dregs criticises a new age culture based solely on upholding a false representation of both the world and the self. The world functions around consumerism and this has slowly leeched into the way people think of themselves: as another thing to be consumed. Value of self is, hence, strongly dependent on how one is received. Though once you’re consumed, all’s left are the dregs and what good are those?
Hairdelier is a personal reflection of identity and superficial attachments to transient aspects of the body.
