AYOM

March 2024
Barcelona, Spain

A film by Vincent Moon

(ES) La audacia de lo imposible – el canto en el borde extremo del mundo – donde todos somos diáspora africana. «Ayom es una entidad supernatural que vive dentro de los tambores». Por mucho que nos movemos en el viaje estamos siempre en el mismo lugar, nuestro ser-el-aquí sigue aquí. Es la profundidad del mundo en nuestro interior lo que varía, el lugar de la resonancia acústica y visionaria – que acoge desde la inteligencia del corazón – el despliegue de lo que es.

(EN) The courage of the impossible – singing at the very edge of the world – where we are all African diaspora. «Ayom is a supernatural being that lives in the drums». No matter how much we move on the journey, we are always in the same place, our being-the-here is still here. It is the depth of the world within us that changes, the place of acoustic and visionary resonance – that welcomes the unfolding of what is – from the intelligence of the heart.
