This piece is from Idris' body of work "The Pattern of Landscape" which
he started in 2022 and which stands for the artist’s recent interest
in, and experimentation with color, especially through the use of
watercolor. "The Pattern of Landscape" integrates watercolor and oil on
aluminum with sheet music, where the sheet music is taken from Samuel
Barber’s “Adagio for Strings”. Khan uses different tones of the color
blue to mimic the emotional lyrical tone of this historically evocative
piece of music that is cathartic in its composition.
