ABSENCE OF ME

ABSENCE OF ME is a 30-minute multimedia solo performance by Nashville-based music and performance artist Sarah Saturday. The piece reimagines five of Sarah’s (fka Gardening, Not Architecture) original songs as new remixes, and features the single "Absence of Me," released in 2019. Sampled meditations thread through the music, alongside a synchronized light show and video accompaniment by Sarah's longtime collaborator Dycee Wildman. Intimate and immersive, the performance invites audiences into a meditative space where sound, light, and image move as one.
