Interdisciplinary Artist
Spanish Key is a composition from the Miles Davis 1970 Bitches Brew album. The “Spanish” guitar in the lower right corner provides relief from an otherwise dark painting with ostensibly obscure imagery. This experimental work contains flames rising from a hand drum and African masks with one playing a saxophone. The dimensions are larger in scale than the other pieces at 48 x 36 on 2-inch diameter stretched canvas. There are multi-media elements using thin wood strips to convey the effect of raised guitar strings and gesso medium to create texture and dimensional perception. The curated soundtrack heard is “All Is Well” composed and produced by Irving for trumpeter Ron Friedman on the 1999 album “Flattering Secrets”.
