For ecological journal Ambient Receiver:

Komorebi, a Japanese term that captures the delicate interplay of sunlight filtering through trees, serves as the conceptual foundation for this ambient piece. Through the ethereal resonance of the harp - whether stretched, synthesized, or sampled - the composition invites the listener to experience this natural phenomenon transcribed into sound.

The harp's bisbigliando technique evokes the shimmering light that dances through leaves, embodying both a sense of melancholy and beauty. Beyond its sonic qualities, the harp is deeply intertwined with nature, both in its mythological symbolism and in the materials it is crafted from, all of which stem from the biosphere.
