Chaz della Porta : Sculpture Ears Full of Jazz

 

 
     
 
     

EAR FULL OF JAZZ
edition of 19
bronze
28" L x19" W x 31" H

 

I hear and listen to the music. This crazy and ordered jumble of sound is often beyond my spoken vocabulary. Ear Full of Jazz helps me to digest and make whole what initially seems to be chaos.
The beauty of chaos is that it exists despite the logical wish for it to disappear.
For 2 years this piece was untitled until it's picture appeared in a newspaper next to an article explaining a local event.
The title for the article was 'ear full of jazz'.
All I saw was my sculpture with what has become its title underneath the picture, no question it was perfect and I am glad to have not forced a name upon it. During the making of the work i had been introduced to the concept of Emergence.
