Bob Whittaker is a contemporary British artist whose minimalist compositions meticulously transcribe music notation. As a professional saxophonist with deep roots in the UK jazz scene, the artist's musical background gives a unique perspective during the creative process.
​
Each painting is a visual representation of a musical composition. The pitch, rhythm and expression are accurately measured into geometric forms, creating a visual mirror of the auditory experience.
​
This approach allows the artist to share the essence of musical notation in a fresh, visual format. the paintings invite viewers to not only see the music but to feel its rhythm and flow in a new dimension. By merging these two worlds, he creates a harmonious dialogue between sound and sight, offering a distinctive slant on the interconnectedness of art forms.
