Saaga: Rain Mask
2006
Found objects
7'
When the soil dries
When the granaries are empty
When the air is hot
Under the rhythm of the drums
The masks dance and beseech nature
To sympathize with their pain
And to cry a tear
Quand le sol se dessèche
Quand les greniers se vident’
Quand l’air se chauffe
Sous le rythme des tam-tams
Les masques dansent et implorent la nature
De compatir à leur douleur
Et de verser une larme
