This artwork, a visual interpretation of Tchaikovsky’s “The Seasons, Op. 37b: VI. June (Barcarolle),” captures the fluidity and rhythm of music through intricate line work and abstract notation. The top half of the piece is dominated by flowing, organic lines that reflect the ebb and flow of the Barcarolle’s melody, translating sound into motion. These undulating forms suggest the waves of water, reminiscent of the Barcarolle’s origin as a song of the gondoliers, further emphasizing the piece’s gentle, rocking rhythm. The bottom half features abstract musical notation, visually representing the composition's structure, harmonies, and dynamics. The juxtaposition of these two forms—the abstract lines and the structured notation—represents the harmony between chaos and order found in music. I want to invite the audience to “see” the music as a landscape, where the movement of sound shapes visual space. It’s an exploration of the intersection between auditory and visual experience, transforming sound into an abstract, meditative landscape. By doing so, I hope to experience music in a new dimension, revealing the beauty of its structure and the emotion within its form.
