The flower of having passed through paradise in a dream for saxophone quartet, melodicas and electronics sonically sets fourteen tableaux inspired by the poetry of Oregon-based poet Emily Carr, delving as well into José Esteban Muñoz's philosophical approach of ephemerality through queer temporalities. The piece combines epithets and glistering realities of various temporal orders where past, present, future and sonic artifacts melt together through fragmented units.
