Music in movement: dance. Music in poetry: song. Music in writing: a score. How to translate Music into painting? My work is born from the deep necessity to fuse my two vocations: music and visual arts. I first memorize a song, I study it. Then I choose a common place, on the sidewalk, on a wall… and I draw the music—how I hear it, how it comes out of the chalk, how I see it.
Música en movimiento: la danza. Música en poesía: una canción. Música escrita: una partitura. ¿Como traducir la Música en pintura? Este trabajo nace de una necesidad profunda de fusionar mis dos vocaciones: la música y las artes visuales. Primero memorizo la canción, la estudio. Luego escojo un lugar cualquiera, sobre la acera, en un muro… Y dibujo la música. Como la escucho, como nace bajo la tiza, como la veo.
