Artist Statement:

While my primary artistic channel involves interpreting works for classical piano, I also have an interest in the process and execution of translating into visual art my innermost thoughts, feelings, and imaginings that happen while playing the piano. My goal with with bringing the Goldberg Varations to life through visiual art was to isolate, dissect and then re-shape a vibrant, fantastical creation which approximates the workings of my heart and mind.

The Goldberg Variations begins with a simple Aria that Bach explores and transforms through 30 variations before returning to the original theme, unchanged on the page from the first pages of the work, yet changed through the experience of the previous variations.

The thought that one solitary theme can carry so much potential has especially resonated with me. Subsequently, the art form of collage emerged as my form of expression in ONENESS. I chose this medium to mirror the contrapuntal lines of Bach’s writing: separate items which are gathered together to create a new whole. I endeavoured to keep the textures, colours, and motion of the music incorporated, as if I were playing the art onto the canvas with my fingers.

There are 32 pieces in total in this exhibit. Each piece has been printed on high quality cotton paper, with a limited run of 25 prints per piece.
