31/33 Sing To The Moon

14. März 2022 by SaraW Master Research

Listen to the version I used as a guide:

In fact, I tried to keep it puristic in this painting and have quite trivially picked up the element of the moon, because everything the night sky has to offer somehow inspires me when painting. I took this thought further and created a creature. Funnily enough, it reminds me of the little dwarf „Sleepy“ from Disney’s Snow White. An old, wise, tired creature that is friendly towards life – a loving, higher power. Now it is already the second time that my paintings are about a superior being. Probably this is due to my currently intense search for unrestricted access to creative power and imaginativeness….

Below the moon and the „starry-sky-being“ lies a city. This city visualizes the Melodic Movement of Laura Mvula’s „Sing To The Moon“ (By the way, also worth listening to in the original version on her album!). 

Information about the intervals can be found in the height of the buildings. Buildings not filled in white symbolize sustained notes. The simple task I set myself for this picture was: „Let your melody follow the movement of the skyline“.

You can listen to the realization of this task below.

„Sing To The Moon“ by Sara Wittazscheck

The following thoughts and assoziations arose from this painting:

  • „Star-being“
  • crescent moon
  • night
  • nocturnal mood
  • virtual city 
  • surrealism/futurism
  • superior being: wise, omniscient, friendly, tired, 
  • foggy
  • facing life with kindness
  • ups and downs
  • everything you need already exists
  • view 
  • dark and light side
  • towers, skyscrapers
  • distance
  • stardust lies over all things
  • we see the light side of the moon
  • contact with the stars or something supernatural
  • piano keys
  • ebony and ivory
  • contrast light and dark
  • Floating

Hook:

Straight and tangled, star-spangled

You’ve lived so many lives, You’ve seen so many souls

Straight and tangled, star-spangled

you’re obscure beyond compare, building castles in the air

perpetual noise and endless blue

You feel the tides while I feel you

„Slays king, ruins town,

And beats high mountain down.“ (Tolkien, gollum’s riddle)
