Official synopsis Publisher
How do you convey, within the constraints of working in two dimensions, the complexity of improvised jazz? A Cecil Taylor piano frenzy or one of John Coltrane’s expansive meditations: their qualities would have to shine from the page as reminders of music we have heard or hints of music we’ve missed. The postures, modes, serenity, tension, and joy that come from playing jazz flow seamlessly from Carole Hand’s work. Just as the music inspired her paintings, so they can inspire keepers of this journal–to dream, to remember, to write.
