Mapping the solar system through sound, visual art, and performance — an ongoing exploration of the space between cosmos and psyche.
​
Inspired by Mesopotamian and Babylonian relationships to cosmology, astronomy, and ritual, the project was conceived by graphic designer, musician, and filmmaker Kris Vango (Kristen Howard) in January 2019 from the physical soil of Earth — “Ard.” What began as a vision to create one dedicated work for each planet has since evolved into a fluid body of interconnected states and transmissions.
​
Rather than reducing planets to fixed identities, the works move through metamorphosis: expressing celestial bodies as living processes, emotional architectures, and shifting symbolic forces. Contained within vessels of album releases and visual films, the project resists rigid categorisation, instead reflecting a philosophy aligned with nature’s fluidity rather than the human impulse to conquer, classify, or colonise it.
​
There is no fixed destination point — only an invitation to immerse in a sonic and visual journey intended to explore the heavens through sound.
