"Growth & Decay" by Jayl & Amy Lion

During the autumn, Jayl worked on a photographic project with his friend and student - Amy Lion. They roamed around Gloucestershire & the Forest of Dean for a day and produced some very interesting work. Entitled "Growth & Decay" - they are proud to present Part 1 of their project here on Jayl.Net.

Artwork for the project, including the front cover, is being created by Romney Marsh artist Terry Anthony, an artist Jayl has been working with for many years. Terry originally created the cover for Jayl's debut CD - "The World & the Hooded Man" in 1997. Jayl, Jimmie Bone & Landa also recently provided the music for an exhibition of Terry's works, where the front cover for the new album was revealed for the first time. Terry has also just finished a beautiful piece for the song "Delivered", a small section of which is featured on the link to the left.

For now, if you do feel lost, the best place to go is back to the MAIN ARENA or visit the ARCHIVES.

Diversity is always a major feature in Jayl's agenda and you can look back over other amazing projects from the last 3 years by visiting the archives page. These projects include Jayl & Bone's"Sweet Baby Shark" project and their Drum 'n Bass "Beastin' 175" project with DJ Detox.

Last year, in the magnificent setting of Gloucester Cathedral, Jayl & Jimmie Bone instigated yet another unique and innovative project. As part of their continued collaborations with up-and-coming young artists, they got together with the Gloucester Academy of Music to record a lost masterpiece - "In the Forest" by Adelina de Lara - the world famous concert pianist. The piece was written in 1949 and has never been recorded before.

The session is still awaiting final mixing, but meanwhile, the Academy performed the piece @ the Tewkesbury Festival earlier last year.

THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK - "In the winter, in the time of discontent, we'll walk in icy shards of light, on slates of frost on stalagnites ... In the gloom, when the laughter's cast aside - put cats in coffee, mice in tea, welcome Queen of Mercury." Jayl - "Mercurial"
