Kinderszenen" and Otherness
A child in the dark, gripped with fear, comforts himself by singing under his breath. He walks and halts to his song. Lost, he takes shelter, or orients himself with his little song as best he can. The song is like a rough sketch of a calming and stabilizing, calm and stable, center in the heart of chaos. Perhaps the child skips as he sings, hastens or slows his pace. But the song itself is already a skip: it jumps from chaos to the beginnings of order in chaos and is in danger of breaking apart at any moment. There is always sonority in Ariadne’s thread. Or the song of Orpheus.
−Gilles Deleuze, Félix Guattari
The theme "Childs scene / Kinderszenen" was borrowed from a piano piece ( No.15, composed in 1838) of German composer, Robert Schumann (1810-1856) . I faced my work repeatedly with one same theme, as a result, small repetition connected to the next work, and then, process of the research formed a small project.
