Water, Bees, Earth: A Sonic Exhibition Tour

Christopher Russell, Beework:Hive, 2011. Glazed white earthenware, 9 1/2 x 12 inches.

This sonic tour of Feast & Famine opens with three elements of our food chain: water, bees, earth. All of the planet’s inhabitants depend on the perfect balance of all three. Yet, the current human cacophony tests these limits. This playlist encourages the listener to consider sonic interpretations of the visual work. These thirteen songs were selected to imagine how the earth might express its discord. How can we harmonize with earth’s song?
