The incredible relationship between music and art has always played a significant role in the creation of my work. Side Eye NYC is a recent work by guitarist Pat Metheny. One piece in particular titled Lodger, became a mantra in the studio. The music is a dialogue of movement, feeling and gesture. In some ways it birthed a gateway to an exploding kaleidoscope of the unknown drawing in a spontaneous desire to simply fly through the music like a heartbeat. The excitement of reaching a mystical syncopation unpacking an adventure, releasing the darkness hidden in all things possible.
