Meulen, Lo
A Tree Is For Eternity
Created for and shaped by years of work for video installations and exhibitions, the record moves through ambient space, experimental texture, and a distinctly cinematic sense of pacing. On the album 'a tree is for eternity' (and accompanying tour), Lo Meulen integrates his music and accompanying videos with contributions on the cover from friends and artists, each offering a personal interpretation of the old walnut tree in Meulen's garden a place where they have partied, slept, dined, meditated, or simply sat beneath its canopy. The title is a tribute to that old walnut tree, which is both a home and a source of inspiration for Meulen. Elvis Peeters contributes a poem 'Tree" from his up and coming collection of poems 'Van mug tot Marx" (Poëziecentrum).
