About this artwork
This piece was at ArtPrize in Grand Rapids MI! It was displayed at Monroe Community Church 9/15/22- 10/2/22. The relationships between music and the mind is a continual theme for the artist.

piece has a hand made wood base. Plexiglass is laser etched with the sheet music of "Effervescent". The musical notes have laser cut holes. The artist takes the plexiglass and creates a frame. It is embedded into the wood base and glued with specialized glue. Next the artist takes jewelry wire and weaves between the four sides to create a constellation of all the connections of notes. Sabre says this reminds her of how the mind works when listening to music. The result is a kinetic piece of artwork that is contemporary, yet eternal.
