Ex Stasis is a symphonic song cycle for four voices and orchestra in which Farr charts colonial guilt and redemption.
An exstasy, in its original sense, means "standing outside of oneself" – it is being in a state of removal from your normal physical and mental experience and is a momentary experience of a different plane of existence. Rather than telling a story, Ex Stasis is more about a moment in time, a meditation or an overlapping collection of conversations, myths, and stories.
