Synesthesia Drawings of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (2024-ongoing) sumi ink and gouache on murillo
Synesthesia Drawings of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (2024) were gleaned from “watching” the music. Schwartz describes her process as “butterfly-netting” the most beautiful-looking sounds and pinning them to paper, preserving their fleeting presence in static form.
Mozart’s pieces have a beautiful and light colour pallette and at some points counterbalance within. Each mark captures the gesture of sound as it moves through space, reflecting both the delicate intricacies and bold contrasts embedded in the music. These drawings were cultivated from Mozart’s Dissonances. Listen to a sample here.
Additional synesthesia series emerge from the sensory experiences of Luxembourg Gardens, the voices of Alan Watts, Oliver Sacks, Richard Feynman, James Baldwin, and the music of Frederic Chopin.
