about

Divine Portals appear in unexpected ways. Even during the most difficult circumstances, there can be optimism and hope. In a small Japanese costal village, tremendous natural forces and mystical serendipity converged to make me aware of this story. I became inspired to bring this composition into existence. A “Torii” is a traditional Japanese “gate” designed to impede the flow of evil spirits. This particular Torii was erected to insure the safe voyages of local fishermen. The massive tsunami of 2012 lifted the Torii from its moorings and cast the sacred wooden beams adrift into the vast Pacific. The remains of the Torii washed up on the coast of Oregon. They were identified there and carefully shipped back to their rightful place at the Itsukushima shrine in Hachinohe, Japan. Despite the devestation of the tsunami, this epic journey of the Torii Gates has resulted in a profound connection between two cultures.
