ABOUT THE LOCATION
2°29'11.6"S 43°07'55.9"W
Lençóis Maranhenses National Park is a graceful composition of shapes of land and water, located in the "majestic and sensual world of Northern Brazil" - as RY X musingly expresses it. The 155 thousand hectares is unique for its white sand dunes and topaz lagoons that the wind reshapes endlessly.
ABOUT RY X - LENÇOIS (LOVE ME)
RY X initially composed Lençóis (Love Me) for his live performance at the Lençóis Maranhenses National Park for Cercle. Writing the song, he "wanted to feel like it belonged to both (his) heart, and the waters and hills of this place:" "Creating and producing the song took on a life of its own spurred on by the images in my mind of these shapes of land and water". In his interview for Cercle, he portrayed the nature around him as "feminime". Lençóis (Love Me) became both "a cry of the heart to be understood deeply, especially to be taken in and held by the feminine unconditionally", and "a lament out to those lands in that same way too".
