about

Mwsig Tlawad contains 16 Improvised guitar responses to my current sketchbooks and is dedicated to the Japanese guitarist Kawol Samarqandi

It is vital not to display external ego or to demand unnecessary adulation
Internally improvised music and drawing are high art and are to be taken with extreme seriousness and with the upmost respect for the self-development process at work.

Within lies great meaning

The ritual
The work
The amplification of tiny sound to the deafening scale of universal awareness

The mystery within the mystery
The intensity
The fire

To die for this art is just and fair
To die striving for completeness is your ideal
To work towards the seemingly impossible is the only option

The creative process and an understanding of the actual work being made is like a jigsaw that can never be completed. All the pieces are there but we can’t quite see where they fit. We must never stop trying to learn how to make sense of it all

Problem is that the jigsaw changes over time. Pieces that fit today won’t in the future but that is the nature of life. The jigsaw with never be finished.
