about

In BC less than 1% of Old Growth Forests are left standing and even with so few intact ecologies surviving, they are still being logged and destroyed for short term gain. “Fairy Creek Lament”, the second single from Polyphonic Garden Suite II was created from field recordings from Fairy Creek, on the lands of the Pacheedaht First Nations, site of one of the largest cases of civil disobedience in canada’s shortsited history. This meditation on loss was created through tempering keyboards with the song of Robin, Thrush and the endangered Western Screech Owl, creatures and kin that stand to lose their habitats due to human impact. The sublime animations for this video were created by the artistic wonder that is Sab Meynert. May we begin to choose new paths that understand our interdependence with this world and show care for all that surround us.
