Handprinted Cyanotype Artwork. Edition of 10 originals
Future Notes concludes this cyanotype series with a calm meditation on the future—the next musical piece, the next performance, and the next adventure, all framed within the enduring mountain landscape. To visually explore the question, “How do we see music?” I took my daughter’s newest piano score and removed all the stems, isolating the notes as a field of dots that are shown in the sky as stars.
This arrangement transforms musical notation into a constellation of potential, representing the visual form of future melodies. Addressing the prompt, “How do we hear images?”, the musical staffs remain visible in the negative space. They float through the composition, evoking both the structure of music and the invisible currents of the wind, thereby giving form to an auditory image. The calmness of the artwork is reinforced by delicate natural elements: three slender pieces of dried tall grass on one side are balanced by four small, dainty flowers on the other. This juxtaposition of structure (music) and nature emphasizes the quiet, hopeful anticipation for the Orchestra’s next century of vitality. The final section of the Blairmore mountain range, Chinook Peak, anchors this vision, connecting the future of music to the fixed beauty of our small mountain community.
Artwork Dimensions: 6.5” (w) x 8.5” (h), fits in an 8” × 10” mat and can be placed in any 11” × 14'“ frame.
