Postcards From Cloud 9 Listen here Inaugural poem by Holly Crawford
a fuzzy patch, a starting
a point, one and more
contextually cloud-hopping above
soaring, renewing shifting
becoming, in the afternoon
becoming cloud-seeders,
man, woman, human
and animal muses, solace
through postmodern lens
structured, fractured and more,
a starting point slightly irregular,
fragile, and new
a possible troubled landscape, a
cyborg picnic, welcoming
contradictions, a starting point
cutting time, surprising me but
but the words hurt
becoming, becoming more
white chalk and black paper
unlearn, dematerialize
navigate, histories erased
memories, the voices of the sea
is/are about hard
to keep up perhaps, harsh leftovers
fractured schemes and questions,
surprise me, merging
layers of translucent cuts
white, intense, fragile, nouvelle en place
folded diagonally, a geometry
of broken hearts
soaring into misty morning
skies becoming open,
a postcard, I imagine you
reading this in the afternoon
a starting point

سحاب... ...Cloud- Official closing song for the Cloud 9 Pavilion Bangkok Biennial 2020 by Hamza Bourezg
Algerian composer and musician Hamza Bourezg lives and works in Laghouat, Algeria. Laghouat is at the edge of the Saharan Atlas Mountain range and the Sahara Desert: an oasis.
Bourezg has performed in many places in Algeria including several times as an invited artist at the Raconte Arts Festival in the high mountains of Kabylie.
He wrote this piece inspired by clouds and the artists in the pavilion. His finger work reflects the subtle movement of the clouds, the embrace of air, light, and water that form a continuum in the sky, at once a cloud, then a mist, and rain again.
