This piece is made up of two panels that have been put together, giving it two different surfaces: canvas and wood. The artist enjoys experimenting with various mediums and methods; in this case, she uses acrylic paint, ink, and coloured pencils, carving her lines into the wood with a knife.

Nature and its sounds are the subject of Maho Maeda's artistic inquiry. Beginning with an observation of nature, the artist asks what sounds characterize it and how to translate them into images. The sound traces in her works are changed into lines that move, turn, transform, and break. The lines cross the surface or the various surfaces to form aesthetically pleasing compositions that are both powerful and poetic. less
