Vinyl - es.cher - Scattered sunlight, broken glass

The first vinyl release from underground UK artist es.cher, ‘Scattered sunlight, broken glass’, is “a collage of emotional snapshots, held together by texture and tone.”

The project’s title is inspired by a quote about evoking imagery through vivid details from Russian playwright and short story writer Anton Chekhov, in a letter to his brother:
.
“In descriptions of nature, one must seize on small details, grouping them so that when the reader closes his eyes he gets a picture. For instance, you’ll have a moonlit night if you write that on the mill dam a piece of glass from a broken bottle glittered like a bright little star, and that the black shadow of a dog or a wolf rolled past like a ball.”
.
This image – of something broken, reflecting light – is at the heart of Scattered sunlight, broken glass, like experiencing music through a refracted cosmic curtain in some liminal space. An existential meander, its story unfolds in a dreamlike world where memories and fantasy blur together, both as vivid as each other.
