Title: " After Rupture of The Deep"

Dedicated to Martha Graham Founder of Expressive Modern Ballet and the Memory of the Founder of Deep Purple-John Lord.

This art work's illustritive meaning is about practicing the method of Contraction and Release in continious gliding movements. This is factually paralel in art synesthesia. The colours of the dancer in the art work further denote her costume.

Having come from a background of dance (1964-1982), I executed fourteen layers in Pastels done to the somewhat analytical method of individually analysing the instruments and as an instrumental piece to the song "Rapture of The Deep" by Deep Purple and further taking the lyrics into account.

As the figures are transformed in various layers in an intuitive way to the rhythm and beat of the song, a further optical illusion appears as an erotic depiction of a couple dancing in fantasy world of their own.

The original art work -meant as a Tribute to Deep Purple is no longer available due to an illogical situation concerning an undelievered shipment. Nothing but a fly on a Lion's Head. All that remains is good old whiskey hour of Jazz & Blues music and watching Purple Skies. Not to mention taking deep breathing meditations.

Medium: Pastel Chalks and Pastel pencils on Castello Paper.

 Music: Deep-Purple rapture of the deep. Edel Records. 2005. 4.

Also drawn to various other albums: Fireball, Made in Japan, Gemini Suite, Bananas, Total Abandon Australia 99, In Rock-Remastered.
