Brambu Drezi

A work of almost two decades, Brambu Drezi is poetry as experience and an unbounded process of imagination. This three-part work is inspired and sourced in fields as diverse as The Old Testament, quantum physics, medieval alchemical texts and grimoires, Marcel Duchamp, The Tibetan Book of the Dead, Haitian Vodun, and the music of Hildegaard von Bingen, Bartok, Robert Johnson, and John Coltrane. Berry combines words with drawn, painted and computer-manipulated images to create a deeply spiritual yet unexampled book. At once dark and luminous, it is an ecstatic, visionary work summoning "liberation in all its forms." Writing about Brambu Drezi Harry Polkinhorn referred to Berry as "the preeminent experimentalist of his generation."
