LES LUMIERES DE L'OMBRE

Il n'est guère qu'une ombre,
une silhouette dans le soir,
un promeneur aux idées sombres
qui arpente les trottoirs.

Sous le halo des réverbères,
ses traits cruels sont comme maudits.
Planqué sous une porte cochère,
il cherche une proie pour la nuit

Invité au seuil des terrasses,
il choisit qui sera puni.
Parmi les enfants qui rêvassent,
il fait son marché, puis son tri.

Quand ses doigts légers vagabondent
sur le corps qui s'est endormi,
les esprits s'apaisent et se fondent 
dans la torpeur de la nuit.

Track created in 2022.

'Ante Mare Undae' is the motto of the House of Rochechouart (Latin contraction of 'Avant que la mer fût au monde, Rochechouart portait les ondes' / 'Before the sea was in the world, Rochechouart carried the waves').

Madame de Montespan, the Sun King's great love and mistress, belonged to this very old French family. They regularly met up at the former ‘Porcelain Trianon’ located in the royal estate of Versailles, a place renowned for its marvellous gardens.

ça devait être autrement

Ascent

In the quiet tension between illumination and shadow, Ascent contemplates the fragile geometry of human choice. Inspired by the verse, “Nor are the darknesses and the light alike,” this work moves between the unseen and the revealed, where every sound becomes a flicker of consciousness reaching toward clarity. Like one turning toward the light of truth, or a wanderer staring into the absurd, the compositions dwell in the moment between understanding and surrender. Each tone, each echo, is a reflection on how the light we seek is shaped by the darkness we carry.

"Closer to time all of us fall."
