I coined the word Inland(pœ)sis to evoke landscapes I’ve never been to, but which I’ve encountered through the poetry of contemporary authors. So the work invites us on an imaginary journey, through the sounds of these two singsong instruments, through the inner contemplation of what we still have within us of secret territories, of nature still alive despite the vagaries of the climate and the assaults of time.
