Bryce Dessner – Past Concerts near Seattle, WA

Through music, Mapplethorpe’s images, poetry by Essex Hemphill and Patti Smith, and use of both theatrical and photographic lighting techniques, Triptych puts the audience inside the artist’s viewfinder, inside his beautiful, bold, voracious view of how nature and humans look, touch, feel, hurt, and love one another.
