Silence is a Sharpened Blade

Silence is a Sharpened Blade speaks in the language of materiality — a stripped bare mantra of nylon and wood conjures unspoken and veiled interiors, channeling the intimacy of a single guitar alone in a room. Silence is a mirror, a shadow, an absence. It speaks when words fail in the poetry of negative numbers. Where do we go when the lights burn out? What is beauty in hell? What can pierce a heart of stone? Silence is a teacher, a doorway, a paradox. Silence is a sharpened blade.
