Description

Named after William Blake’s poem 'Cradle Song', the work, at its heart, is a lullaby. The poem is part of Blake’s Songs of Innocence. My initial idea was to juxtapose the word innocence to reflect the tempestuous sleep that babies have and that I've experienced in the last couple of years of being a father and so the work alternates between active and dulcet, replicating the ups and downs of a night.
