Arrington di Dionyso, Ommie Wise, 2007 |
13.
OMMIE WISE BY G.B.GRAYSON, 1927 REMIX: ARRINGTON DI DIONYSO, OMMIE WISE, 2007 Harry Smith, summarised ‘Ommie Wise’ with this headline: "Greedy girl goes to Adams Spring with liar; lives just long enough to regret it." This ballad is based on the real life drowning of the pregnant Naomi Wise in North Carolina in 1808, who was murdered by her sweetheart John Lewis. Arrington di Dionyso’s work shows the winged spirit of Ommie Wise rising from the water that drowned her. Both his visual art and music deal with the same themes of spirit, sensation and improvisation. Arrington di Dionyso is a visual artist and musician on K records. Recent exhibitions have been held in Los Angeles, New York City, Vancouver BC, Paris, Bologna and Beijing. www.krecs.com/oldtimerelijun |
