Orpheus in the Underpass

Meer over het boek

Inspired by Orpheus in the underworld, this collaboration features a haiku rensaku by Gabriel Rosenstock, responding to an audio recording of Ross McKessock's unique duet with urban sounds, including buses and local chatter in an Oxford underpass. McKessock complements Rosenstock's poetry with evocative photographs of the site, capturing the intersection of art and environment amid ongoing city development. The work blends visual and auditory experiences, creating a rich tapestry that reflects contemporary urban life.
