This artwork emerged from the quiet intimacy of being near a piano — not as an object to behold, but as a spirit that fills the air. The vertical bands and repeated marks murmur like keys pressed under fingertips, while the molten reds and luminous yellows pulse with the warmth and intensity of sound — its rhythm, its breath, its heartbeat.
To paint was to play: a conversation between impulse and instinct. Layers of paint scraped, smeared, and reborn echo the repetition of music — notes struck, fading, and struck again — until the canvas itself hums with life. This piece does not illustrate music; it becomes music, translating its fire and tenderness, its quiver and resonance, into colour and texture. It is a dance of the senses, a caress of rhythm made visible, an ode to the way sound can ignite the soul.
