Stewart Copeland Art

He's a legendary drummer. He's an acclaimed composer. And with the release of "What is Art?" he dives head first into the world of Rhythmic Expressionism. Featuring 14 different works on canvas, "What is Art?" takes drum performance into a new direction - from sound to sight.

To build the collection, Copeland worked with Los Angeles art team SceneFour over a twelve month period. The creation process is an extensive one, but begins with open shutter photography. Outfitted behind the drum kit in a pitch black studio, Copeland works with drumsticks that light in a variety ways to build rhythms that are visually captured into a single photographic frame. The drumsticks are pressure sensitive as well, where the amount of light being generated is directly related to the power of the hit. A second phase of production takes place post capturing, with each of the captures meticulously worked with to bring out their true abstract nature visually. Once printed, several of the pieces are then augmented by Stewart and then reprinted again. Copeland then names the final works.

Each piece in the collection is numbered and individually signed by Stewart Copeland and SceneFour. All feature Certificates of Authenticity. Each is available to collectors worldwide exclusively through StewartCopelandArt.com.
