ABOUT THE WORK

Since the Seventies, Edwin Wilwayco has produced series of abstract expressionist masterpieces, such as his “Whispering Winds” series, that are driven by his profound appreciation for the power of nature and his deep love for classical and jazz music. His assured painterly technique is also not dictated by the creative trends and the usual preferences of the latest tastemakers and new collectors in the art market, always making a lingering impact among viewers of his art. This piece shows the influence of great artists who are also jazz enthusiasts such as Jackson Pollock and Willem de Kooning in his artistic approach to visual narratives. Wilwayco captures the sense of motion of the winds and the bristling music with a keen eye for color and dynamic, spontaneous strokes.
