live painting with music

It was a Friday morning, and we, the design students being assigned with the first ever live painting with music project happened in Taylor’s University. First of all, what is live painting? Live painting basically is a expressive painting. But why with music? In the history of art and music movement, Art is the fuse of the music or either way whereby these two element must be combined together to make something extraordinary. Music helps artist to express their inner feeling and also can ignites artist inner soul and talents. Well, on that day Miss Lisa played two genre of music; which is the classical genre and the pop genre. The songs from classical genre was all Mozart sonata if I am not wrong. I have the strong feelings to this classical genre, Maybe I am a pianist and I have gone through the bad experience of my trainings. I painted Mozart in red to show the unbeatable musicianship in every musicians. Musicians have gone through a lot of bad experience and a lot bad critics.

Left is the classical painting, which I call the the MOZART EFFECT. Right is the pop song painting. Pop song painting, i called it the psychedelic pop. Well, it might also look like Picasso cubism. Why, Picasso cubism? Remembering Picasso wanted to be different from every artist so he use an unconventional way of drawing which I will named him as the hippie of art. In our gen-y culture, we struggle to be different from everyone but there is one thing in the gen-y mind is everyone should be equal social level and this whole relates to hippies. I painted in psychedelic is to express the gen-y culture. You might questioned what do the phone and the Darth Vader represents? Phone represents our way of socialism has changed in gen-y. Darth Vader represents the modernization of our technology. And these relates back to the phone, we know we live in the high technology culture and in this high tech society, we all must have an smart phone. These high tech smart phone caused our socializing skill faced the down fall. Because text more we speak.
