2018 Onstage Offstage Chamber Music Festival
Commissioned Art
25 x 17 inch mixed media painting
"Music the Universal Language" by Stephanie Gonzalez is the commisisoned artwork for the
2018 Onstage Offstage Chamber Music Festival.
Stephanie Gonzalez, commissioned artist writes:
“The gold represents the band in their element, connected and free. The soft colors around the gold are the colors I imagine the music to be, a soft aerie feeling that slowly grabs you. I included pieces from each music packet from each musician but I wanted to keep it subtle so I decided to tear the pieces that called to me and place them on the piece.
Music is so powerful, it can be healing, life changing, but most of all it brings us together and connects us in a way that cannot be compared. Music is the universal language.”
