MixTate Hieroglyphic Being on Wifredo Lam

I approached this MixTate from a slightly different perspective. Rather than mixing other artists’ music to complement a painting, sculpture or installation, I translated the visible forms of Wifredo Lam’s untitled print into a sonic narrative. For the 20-minute-plus piece, I applied my distinctive approach – what I call ’rhythmic cubism’ and ’synth expressionism’ – to infuse the visual world with a conceptual, aural synaesthesia.
