Diminuendo

By Katrinka Moore

From the entangled cosmos to our present quickening calamity, the central concern of Diminuendo is the making and unmaking of the world. We live in uncertainty, "between earth and sky ever- / cycling despair and hope." Despite — or because of — this foreboding, Moore seeks to view the natural world in and of itself, beyond its relationship to humans. This work conceives a realm in which distinctions between animate and inanimate diminish and the boundary between physical and spiritual dissolves.
