Origin of You is a startling new collaboration between Chinese-Australian composers Mindy Meng Wang 王萌 and Sui Zhen, forming spontaneously one wintry afternoon in Melbourne and enduring with bonds that will last longer than a lifetime.
The debut release from these two auspicious artists revolves around three images that form the basis of their musical exploration: 空 (Kōng), or Emptiness; 疼 (Téng), or Pain; 气 (Chi), sometimes known as ‘Energy’.
It is from within these motifs that the central themes of this startling collaboration emerge. As described by Mindy Meng Wang 王萌 --
“This is an album about two artists who got together and formed a sisterhood. It’s about understanding life, family and ourselves. It’s about transforming from being a woman into a mother. And it’s about human connection. We are not related, but we find a connection that comforts us as much as family does.”
Origin of You is out now via Music in Exile.
