Concept
In developing the work with the theme of MUSIC, I thought about what would be the feeling if I were to express music by color.
The waveform of the sound is used as a shape, and also I made this series of works to show my feeling about “what kind of colors it would be if each music was expressed as colors?”, “what is the scenery most suitable for each music?”.
Elis Regina is one of the Bossa Nova singers who are representative of Brazil and was called “small pepper” from its powerful singing voice.
When I hear her singing voice, I feel like I want to dance and I feel a salubrious scenery in summer.
I recommend listening to her singing voice when you are feeling upsetting, or when your energy is not enough.
