Artist Commentary

Label

I was immediately drawn to Bach’s flute sonatas when I heard them as a beginning flute player in high school. I have listened to them repeatedly over the years, each time struck by the poignant and compelling emotions that the different movements evoke. This artwork is my homage to Bach. After making a deconstructed screen print on fabric, I listened to the flute sonatas as I slow stitched my visual interpretation of the music.
