descending notes
Skip to sidebar
descending notes is an erotic cosmic story about trans love, inspired by Donny Hathaway’s A Song for You: “I love you in a place where there’s no space or time.” This interplay of resonance and dissonance sees three ‘transing beings’ circling one another, learning to live in transformation and give each other breath. Artist, filmmaker and writer Lou Lou Sainsbury co-wrote and co-starred with Ada M. Patterson and Raffia Li.
