Sweet With All Music is a project translating my paintings of music into stunning, one-of-a-kind carpets, dyed and woven using the traditional methods in Morocco. Each carpet is based on the harmonic pattern of a single musical work. From the baroque era, to American folk music, to Pearl Jam, these carpets carry musical patterns from diverse sources and deep wells of inspiration.
