A classic music portrait in warm pyrography. The reduced build-up focuses on posture, face and the iconic recognisability of the motif. The warmth of the wood and the depth of the pyrography give the motif a physical, almost relief-like effect. Read as a portrait, the work refuses a smooth surface and instead seeks character, memory and presence.
