sing song dance visual improvisations by aria stone

Sat 6th - Fri 12th Feb

In this body of work Aria investigates the link between music and visual art through the processes of layering and improvisation. She begins by making marks with charcoal and pastel in response to music or sounds of the immediate environment allowing her body to move freely with the rhythms and moods of the moment. After a period of time she starts introducing a subject or theme inspired by poetry, song or memory. Each image seems to emerge of its own accord, as Aria side-steps her analytical mind and allows intuition to take over.
