Music Through Time
My “Music Through Time” work is a testament to the longevity of the materials I work with and music itself. The dense hardwood represented in these cross-sections shows age lines of over 300 years of life in the rainforest. A life filled with the vibrant cacophony of untamed nature as rain rhythmically pounds vegetation and the orchestral echoes of wildlife cuts the air. These works cradle instruments and sheet music to create a synergy of sound and nature. As our rainforests disappear due to deforestation, I hope to encompass the need for noise to save all that we can.
Sheet Music Stand II
2020
Constructed of pentaglone, brass, and lucite
The Sheet Music Stand is part of a series called “Music Through Time.” The passing of time reflects the longevity of the wood used and the perseverance of music through history. The dense hardwood used in this cross-section shows hundreds of years of life in the rainforest - a time filled with the vibrant cacophony of untamed life as rain rhythmically pounds vegetation and orchestral echoes of wildlife cut the air. This piece holds constructed music and resonates with the intrinsicality between sound and nature.
