Profondeurs Vertes is the title of a three-channel video installation produced by Mike Kelley for the louvre, paris, in 2006. the music on this cd functions as the soundtrack music for the three videos. Profondeur vertes begins with a traditional sea chanty complete with waves, creaking timbers, and seagulls, moving into an airy romantic-era piano and harp piece based on Charles Tomlinson griffes' veil of dreams which then transitions into an orchestral rendition of the shark attack from John Singleton Copley's painting "watson and the shark"; more chanty's follow and a rendition of lautréamont's maldoror recited in french complete the cycle of kelley's thought." Music composed by Mike Kelley and Scott Benzel.
