As Far as the Sea Can Reach
The sonic experience of a thin strip of land dividing two seas.
“... plunges us into the heart of the shore, with active but not turbulent surf lulling the listener into a sense of peace.” Review by acloserlisten.com

Between Two Seas

When there’s no more land ~ when water overtakes both sides ~ when an island reaches its end ~ yet there’s still a thin strip of earth that divides the sea in two - I was there, on that last boundary, that delicate thread that holds everything together.

It’s like the spine of the body, the column that keeps you upright while everything else falls away, the narrow path that stands between two worlds.
