REDUX
REDUX is an EP written by Gwenola from October to March 2022 and eventually released in December of that year. It catalogues a queer experience of things being brought back into one's life. Parents, religions, partners, and sense of self all come and go, leaving the self disoriented and tired. But, eventually she finds a "righteous" routine, alone, hoping only to find someone who will "see" her—someone to sit beside her as the day turns into night.

Music & Performance
The imagery across the covers are spilt between the self and the world. Spinning, quiet, blurred, alone, beautiful.
Each song is accompanied by a video conceived, shot, performed and edited by gwenola
in the sunday monday boy video gwen carries a desk chair over her shoulder for multiple miles through sun and snow to it's eventual resting place beside her to watch the sunset
Gwen also performed a live rendition of "The Unnamed" with patrons of the show participating as the backing track for her vocals
The Performance accompanied a sculpture that acted as a physical amalgamation of her EP and the work surrounding it.
Punctuated by a final performance, Gwenola reenacts the shot from "Sunday Monday Boy," bearing the chair seen in the video and creating a shared moment for a few friends and strangers.
