SUMMARY:Stages: Michael Simms
DESCRIPTION:With a background in classical piano and psychology\, Sydney based artist Michael Simms is intrigued by the interconnection of the senses – how rhythm can become gesture\, or sound can take shape as colour and form – allowing the visual and sonic to inform one another. Stages is an ongoing series of portraits by Simms\, honouring performers whose work spans music\, theatre\, dance and performance art. The series explores how presence is expressed — both onstage and off. \n  \n  \nCredit: Michael Simms\, Paul Capsis\, 2017\, oil on board.
