I finished my art piece by washing it with watercolours, creating a ‘worn parchment’ effect and adding a trebleclef in purple.
I did this quite messily, creating the juxtaposition between organisation and chaos; the pristine and passion – this juxtaposition can be seen in teaching and in music, therefore I thought it was appropriate to embellish my final piece in this way.
I titled the piece “Meine Geige” (“My Violin” in German). I did this because my evocative object is a German trade violin. A trade violin is a violin that is named after the maker (either through their real name or a pseudonym)
