Initiated and masterminded by visual artist Caecilia Tripp. The C(o)ral Sonata is multi-form pluri-collaborative visual and sonic art project based on field recordings of coral reefs.
In this creative ecosystem Kerwin Rolland acts as sound recordist, sound architect, composer, and performer.
“Corals have fluid identities, they may shift change sexes and they can sing. When they make Love their Coral Spawning is deeply entangled with the Full Moon, exploding like an ocean full of shooting stars.
Corals are rhizomatic Beings, intertwined with One Another, singing as a C(H)ORAL, to consent not to be a single being.”
(Edouard Glissant & Fred Moten).
Last activation of the project was at the Art and Culture Center/Hollywood in Miami. Guest starring: Theodore Wohng & ZOME AR. With the support of Art Sail.
