The quilt of resilience, burdens and bronze striving for shelf-life brilliance. Finding artifacts that reveal our teeth to keep us wound tightly to the ones we need. Chandeliers sway through moonlit rooms. Silver spoons, children’s shoes, and a mirror documenting the elusiveness of time. Societal relativity and patchwork crimes haunting the ghosts of gravity and lies. Candles in boxes detached and heartless. A portrait captured and cradled in a frame of concrete and bar. The stories reside in the grain. The heirlooms will travel with us. Jesse Payne’s latest, Heirloom (Capture Music Inc.), will be released in 2015. Heirloom is an audio-painting of the passage of time and the baggage we bury. Omens and angels. Philosophical and historical. Generations patched into fabric like heirlooms; these are the things we carry.
