"Sonata No. 6 (Stellar Sonata)," Mikalojus Konstantinas Čiurlionis, 1908.

Čiurlionis (1875-1911) was a Lithuanian artist and composer, best remembered for a series of abstract paintings in which he sought to visually capture musical composition.

This work is one of two that feature a musicalized version of outer space as well as a vision of divinity. We have an orb swirling in the mist, a vision of the solar system, an angelic being, and a pyramid...or is it a beam of light?

Čiurlionis felt he had synesthesia; he saw music as colors and images, and vice versa, and much of his work was an attempt to express that. Some of his early work was Art Nouveau or Symbolist, but this marks his emergence as a pioneer of Abstract art. His work is strange and compelling; like Hilma af Klint, there's a sense of a profound inner vision, highly personal and difficult to discern.

From the M. K. Čiurlionis National Museum of Art, Kaunas, Lithuania.

I'm a newbie here, but suspect some of my initial connections will be from the birdsite. In any case, thanks for listening to my tracks. It's been a good year musically for my music. Thanks to all who helped make that happen!
