Passing on, Passage of Solid Presence (2025 - 2026) a vocal performance for three voices, is a performative extension of the image-text-based work Presence of Liquid Passage, Passage of Solid Presence.
Passing On, Passage of Solid Presence draws parallels between human transformation and the geological processes of erosion. Tracing the slow, spiraling rhythms of cyclical time, this vocal performance guides us deeper into the realms of human tolerance and resilience, potential and persistence, the private and the public, and the power to reclaim narratives. By incorporating the vocabulary of natural phenomena into linguistic arrangements, Passing On, Passage of Solid Presence establishes analogies between human transformation and the descending flow of water, the erosion of stone, and the silence of caves, where ancient whispers of gentle resistance continue to resonate.
performed by the dripping whispers and sipping voices, Marjolein Guldentops, Stine Sampers and Bo Vloors
