Sirens for Silence: Edward’s Lullaby. Short Movie 2024 / Summer Tour 2026

On this movie and for a short tour in The Netherlands, I collaborated with Sirens for Silence. Sirens for Silence is an ensemble currently based in India, creating meditative experiences for listeners in improvised settings using introspective sound and movement. Our journey has led us to pose some essential questions:
If words were stripped away, what truths would we wish to convey? What drives that desire to express and how can we express it?

During our tour we have been attempting to synthesise the compositional with the meditative and playful.
