Flowers Rope
This Chicago, Illinois, based artist is interested in reconstructing the sense of freedom ecstatic dance has given way to the past few decades. “Flowers Rope” uses a number of materials to frame a coherent narrative, but it’s not always clear what’s being assembled in a single narrative line. The longer she creates the tracks, the more noisy they become, and the more crucial it is to disentangle them. Activating the subs and interlocking rhythms of her instrumentals, she presents barely coherent structures that allow the listener to get glimpses of the lush interior.
