Freda D​’​Souza - I cannot return to the womb but I can return to the sea

from SOUNDING SHORE :: coast to coast Volume1 pre​-​recorded 2022 by various artists

/

about

I cannot return to the womb but I can return to the sea aims to capture a submerged womb experience. The wave like compositional structure links the prebirth sensation of existing inside a parent's breathing, with the expanding and contracting of the communal oceanic womb. Designed to be looped, the piece represents an eternal space, rather than a linear narrative. It was all recorded underwater, both in the calm of my bathtub, and whilst being bashed around by the Southampton coast. The reoccurring melody is Leaning on the Everlasting Arms, a song my Mother sang to me in her womb.
