A trio of songwriters and musicians; Ruby James, Liv Mueller and Genevieve Heyward along with melaniejane collaborated and created a song, “Flowers for Clemens” . Part of Holiday Music Motel's songwriting and arts collaboration Love On Holiday, visual artists’ work is paired with songwriters to create a new song! I get to hear it for the first time on Valentines Day 2021! Plus they created an ON-SITE video with my work!

While many parallels can be drawn between the two art forms, there are obvious undeniable differences. Music has a broad palette to work from through words and sounds and even through medium and distribution; there is more of an immediacy to its access, translation and understanding, while visual art—outside from the obvious—sits still and quiet, telepathically transmitting purpose, history, emotion, intentions. The visual artist is speaking to us through what we are viewing but all too often we cannot understand. It is that quiet, nagging, often unsettling wonderment that changes our own thinking and perception, that alters our synapses and thought processes and remains with us long after we leave the space of a work that moved us.
