Description
Music as a gust — instrument and garments blow into one fluid body of sound. An incandescent copper-red violinist floats in the air, drawing the bow; her gown, arms and the instrument's body dissolve into windblown undulating planes that fill the whole canvas. The background is smooth dark green. Below, further golden-red streams of matter unfurl.
