Caroline Tate
“Mahler's music has been a big part of my daily life for many years. As an artist I have found huge inspiration in his music and I have exhibited my work many times. I depict what I 'see' in the music through the use of expressive colour, rhythmic shapes and parts of the actual score. Each image is my visual response to the sound of the music.”
