Inspired by my profound passion for music, this series of paintings captures the dual essence of its influence on my life: calming the chaos of my mind, while simultaneously igniting sparks of inspiration. As an autistic artist who often turns to music as a lifeline, I channel the rhythm and harmonies of my favourite tunes into vibrant, mixed-media canvases. Each piece transforms auditory experiences into visual symphonies—swirling colours that evoke the gentle lull of a folk ballad, bold strokes mirroring the electrifying build-up of a rock anthem, or patterns reflecting the playful absurdity of a quirky jazz track. Through layers of acrylics, inks, and found objects (like vintage vinyl scraps or sheet music fragments), these works not only celebrate music’s therapeutic power but also invite viewers to reflect on their own sonic sanctuaries, blending humour with heartfelt introspection to remind us that creativity thrives in the spaces where serenity meets exhilaration
