Italian artist, Ivana Pinna, invited me to write a musical interpretation of her installation, Nagreta Noten, which went on to win 2nd place in the VERNICE ART PRIZE in March, 2018. Ivana lay a canvas painted with staff lines on the ground where a beloved pet used to lie and left it there for a year. Vines grew and snow fell and Ivana took a photo for each season. The music is based on her autumn photo. I was going for the feeling of kicking leaves on a sunny autumn day, so I wrote it for oboe and cello.

Mario Rodriguez, based in Barcelona, invited me to write music for his light sculpture, A Path Through the Hills of Light. I wanted to capture the dreamy, ethereal sense of the sculpture, so I wrote it for flute, tubular bells and keyboard synthesizer. The melody was derived from the shape of Mario's design.
