Instrumentation: Quartet

Duration: 8:00

The idea of this piece began with the imagery of a painting being folded several times, until just a small piece of it was visible. What you would be able to see at this point presents a very small amount of information about the painting until you begin to unfold it, slowly revealing more information about the larger image. This imagery was used to first create a motive and then break it down into it’s smallest fragments. As the piece unfolds more of the big picture is revealed while the very first small details are still present. Although the end of the piece completes the image, the image was always present from the very beginning.
