A visual work of fine art by the artist VERDANDI.
Verdandi brings a static image to life through temporal loops and a lyrical presence.
**LYRICS**
I was here before the echo
Before the name took hold
I didn’t chase a reflection
I stepped into the unknown
You can copy the image
Miss the spark
Trace the outline
Not the heart
I’m not a copy
I don’t rewind
I only happen in real time
You can freeze the frame
Try to stop me
But I move on - I’m not a copy
I’ve seen truth get flattened
So it fits the screen
But what is alive keeps shifting
In between
You can pass the signal
Hand to hand
Hold the surface
Not understand
I’m not a copy
I don’t rewind
I only happen in real time
You can freeze the frame
Try to stop me
But I move on
I’m not a copy
