All the Growing Shadows

This work treats musical ideas as shadows: familiar shapes that return altered, weakened, or stripped of their original purpose. Material is repeated not to reinforce meaning, but to reveal how context reshapes perception. What once feels directed gradually becomes impersonal.

Motion often continues without clear intention. Warmth recedes, textures tighten, and expressive gestures lose agency, leaving only outlines. Moments of exposure interrupt the process without resolving it. The ending offers no restoration, but suggests endurance — a quiet persistence in which movement remains possible, even after meaning has faded.
