It was written in Padova, Italy on a night where we were scheduled to perform there in the courtyard of a beautiful villa-like building on the outskirts of the city. There were old ceramic walls, chandeliers, Italian vines, and horses on the periphery of the property; it was idyllic to say the least. During this period of time, after my mother had passed, I would talk to her every day. Whether it was in imagination or in spirit doesn\u2019t really matter; my experience was the same. That night in Padova my mother and I talked for a long time as I took a walk around the property. I then happened to come across an old busted up guitar in a giant wooden room with a chandelier in it, I tuned it to something that would work, and this song came out.&#8221;<!--more--><\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"\">&#8220;The experience of my mother\u2019s death has not only been of grief, as our culture often solely represents death being. But, in my experience, death has taken on infinite voices. There are voices of beauty, melancholy, humor, rejuvenation, and freedom located in this experience. When talking with Christopher Good about making this video we talked about making a representation of this experience that involved some of these other aspects of death.\u00a0Christopher has an incredible eye and mind to make abstract narratives, which is what we decided to go with for this video. This scene is only a detail on the vast canvas of representing life\u2019s transition. As there is no finality to this experience, no static way to understand it, we chose to use abstraction, movement, color, and the elements to play with the ideas at hand.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"\">&#8220;Whether you believe in\u00a0\u2018soul\u2019 business or not I\u2019d like to leave with this quote of\u00a0Kahlil Gibran\u2019s that I read shortly after my mother passed. I think it is very beautiful and maybe provides a moment to reflect on another possible voice of death:&#8221;\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"\">&#8220;Death is an ending to the son of<br class=\"\" \/>The earth, but to the soul it is<br class=\"\" \/>The start, the triumph of life.&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"\">Quilt are\u00a0currently on tour in Europe and return to the US for some festival stops this summer, including Mountain Jam, Firefly, and Hopscotch.
