“JAZZ” is a fusion of several passions bringing together the senses; audio, visual, touch, as well as my passionate love of Jazz, the male form and the effect light has on both. Using light and color I juxtaposed the hard metal of the alto saxophone and the supple texture of flesh. The saxophone is imbued with golden hues that denote warmth while the player is rendered in cooler colors of white, blue, purple and violet. I wanted to give the sensation that the player is emptying himself into the saxophone creating the soulful sound of jazz from within himself as well as through the musical instrument itself.
