We're excited to share ON TIME by Michael K. Slayton, commissioned by the Westwood Percussion Quartet and performed by Riley Hale, Alex Holloway, Sarang Shravan, and Matthew Oh.
Inspired by the work of Japanese artist On Kawara and his lifelong exploration of time, memory, and human existence, ON TIME is a powerful journey through shifting rhythms, suspended moments, and personal milestones. The work reflects on what it means to be "still alive" as time moves around and through us.
