Relax to Release
Contours of Sound
About This Work
A meditation on what it takes for our soul to find its way
through the labyrinth of emotions. This piece captures the delicate moment
when the heart learns to let go, transforming struggle into serenity. The
composition flows like a gentle exhale, inviting viewers to experience their
own process of relaxation and emotional liberation.
Technique & Process
The canvas begins its journey with cloth and oil, mixed with turpentine,
creating a fluid foundation that breathes with the rhythm of the music. Charcoal
then moves across the surface, sketching the flora of our soul in bold,
expressive strokes. Finally, the brush takes flight, each stroke a whisper of feeling, each colour evoking a piece of a Zen garden.
Inspiration & Context
Part of the "Contours of Sound" collection, this painting was created in collaboration
with DJ Mindaniel. The artist painted while listening to Mindaniel's electronic music
track, which inspired the flowing, meditative quality of the work. The music's
rhythm and energy guided the brushstrokes, creating a visual representation of
the journey from tension to release, perfectly matching the track's emotional
flow and the painting's title.
