Music to Make the Art Beat Faster
Music and art have always shared a rhythm. One exists in sound, the other in silence, but both have the same power to stop you mid-step, pull you into a moment, and stir something instinctive. Some artworks feel louder than others. Not because they show musicians or instruments, but because they carry music within them.
This small selection of works explores that crossover. From classical composition to punk attitude, from DJs and turntables to cultural icons frozen in time, each piece has its own tempo.
Beethoven’s intensity and relentless focus feel almost audible in Sunday B. Morning’s interpretation. A reminder that long before streaming, music was already deeply visual. At the other end of the spectrum, Madonna’s pop legacy is filtered through Pure Evil’s unmistakable lens: bold, irreverent, and unapologetically charged.

Elsewhere, a DJ’s needle becomes something cosmic, blurring sound, science, and imagination. Liam Gallagher’s pale blue portrait captures that quiet, pre-storm energy. And the infamous 27 Club brings together voices that burned brightly and briefly, forever etched into cultural memory.
These are artworks that don’t just sit on the wall - they hum, pulse, and resonate. You don’t need to hear the music to feel it. Sometimes, the beat is already there.
