Marsha Swanson’s Generational Transmission is a moving testament to the power of music as memory. Shifting from piano to keyboard, she crafts a spacious, hypnotic melody that carries her reflections on family, legacy, and the choices we make in shaping the stories we pass forward. Her songwriting is both intimate and expansive, addressing the universal moment of realizing one’s place in a lineage.
The claymation video, Swanson’s fifth collaboration with Sam Chegini, is nothing short of groundbreaking. Hand-sculpted figures embody the fragile yet adaptable nature of identity, their transformations mirroring the process of inherited experience. The clay itself becomes the perfect metaphor—pliable, marked by history, yet always capable of being reshaped.
Together, the music and visuals form an experience that is as emotional as it is innovative. Generational Transmission stands as a reminder that legacy is not a fixed weight but an evolving story—and that through art, we can reimagine how it is carried forward.
