Many believe the meanings behind musical notes, and the meanings beyond colors, spring from a common source. The major difference is that with music there is no point where you can seize the experience and hold it.
Music is on-going sound, and as such, continues to become.
It can be said that an audible composition lives solely in the world of the imagination, yours and the composer's. In his art, Justin Love stills and holds such moments, trapping them within the perimeter of foursquare space and lulling them into submission with sensuous color. With a simplicity of form and plane, Love devises mysterious yet totally convincing images. He nails them down with the riveting presence of physical ecstasy and the hollowed-out aces of loss. Now, when so much art is ironic and distanced, Justin Love cajoles the viewer into an intimate participation.
