Still Lives is an evolving collection of original stories, poems and monologues that extends Pete Donnelly’s sculptural practice into voice and music.
The series explores the inner lives of the characters he creates: their memories, relationships, contradictions and the experiences that shape them. Some pieces develop directly from individual sculptures; others emerge from the same imagined world.
These stories offer another way of encountering his work, while preserving space for each listener’s own associations and interpretations.
