Marcia Bassett, East Virginia, 2007 |
58.
EAST VIRGINIA BY BUELL KAZEE, 1929 REMIX: MARCIA BASSETT, EAST VIRGINIA, 2007 This song tells the tale of sorrow, love lost and love never realised. Death is a theme throughout, with references to killing, coffins and graves. The odd sounding modal harmonics are reflected in Bassett’s work which juxtaposes American Dogwood, Red Cardinal and a skull with geometric shapes, stars and bolts of lightening, all linked together by abstract angled lines. By pairing these familiar, yet symbolic, images together, Bassett creates tension, hinting at hidden mystic belief system, a connection between the human and the cosmic. Marcia Bassett is an artist and musician, she is in a variety of noise bands including: Double Leopards, Hototogisu and Spectre Zaimph. |
