This piece uses a short excerpt from Agnes Martin's essay 'The Untroubled Mind' as a text. I find Martin's words and paintings to be wonderful.

While writing this piece, Agnes Martin was in my mind. I was also thinking about taking things away and adding other things. Making and breaking patterns. Re-iteration and re-ordering. The piece, breathing.

"I don't have any ideas myself. I have a vacant mind. In order to do exactly what the inspiration calls for." - Agnes Martin

Thank you to Paul for his advice and encouragement, and to James and the singers of EXAUDI.
