Route Map
Citing poet Amanda Gorman’s “The Hill We Climb”, “how fragile, we bloom” takes listeners through a guided walk in the Herbert & Hyonja Abrons Woodland trail at Wave Hill Public Gardens, created in collaboration with their Art, Community, Education and Science (ACES) youth interns. Alongside Chromic Duo's sound design, narration and composition, stories from the youths have been incorporated into a site-specific, meditative soundwalk that invites audiences to reflect upon this current moment in history. The youths' stories speak to individual and collective experiences, creating a storytelling capsule. Through communal creation and connection, Chromic Duo provides a platform for Wave Hill visitors to contemplate the ways that seasons bring change, their own relationships to nature and the larger community, and ultimately, how to support one another through times of uncertainty, and build a future arched towards collective liberation.
