with Leonardo Gala
Renowned Pianist, Composer,
and MIDI & Audio Artist

6PM

EEA Carriage House

FREE - OPEN TO THE PUBLIC

Current artist-in-residence, renowned pianist, composer, and MIDI and audio artist Leonardo Gala will discuss his work and process, as well as projects as Artist-in-Residence. Mr. Gala will present Memento:mori, a new multi-media work composed for orchestral and electronic music instrument sounds. The theme of this new symphonic poem was derived from the current East End Arts Gallery Show La Morte, but sonically travels a full human life span - ultimately ending in the "next transition". Several exotic minor scales have been used in this work, as well as ancient Latin plain chant. The electronic music will be manipulated 'live' during the presentation. Mr. Gala has instructed piano for over 30 years and has been exploring the art of composition both manually and digitally for nearly four decades.

TIBETAN MANDALAS
Mandala
Thangka painting of Vajradhatu Mandala
Saturday, May 5, 10AM-1PM
Instructor: Daniel Brazil
The mandala is a design used by the Buddhist and Hindu religions and carries with it rich religious meaning and spiritual significance. Mandala is a Sanskrit word that means "circle" and is meant to represent the cosmos. The psychoanalyst Carl Jung saw the mandala as "a representation of the unconscious self", and believed his paintings of mandalas enabled him to identify emotional disorders and work towards wholeness in personality. The Tibetan sect of Buddhists adapted this design technique into sand painting and used this practice in a ceremony of reverence and sacrifice that is both beautiful and intriguing. During the lecture portion we will discuss these sand mandalas and watch a short video of a sand mandala ceremony. During the practical portion we will design and create our own mandalas using a symmetry technique that can be applied to various other projects.
Cost: $36 EEA members / $54 non-members
