Painting Melody by Mira Chorik

Painting Melody is a love song to visual art and the creative act.

Through music that tumbles imagery into mind and heart, and intimate, hand-drawn stories, you’re invited to return to a place of sensory knowing and imagination.

A life-changing experience before a gold-framed portrait in Rome, transcendence on canvas, art and suffering in gestural line, making as thinking, colours and forms that bring unseen labour to light, and the pictures that start a movement.

With vivid description and warm-honey vocals, Painting Melody blends the worlds of art and music, smudging the lines that separate art and life.

For seasoned gallery-goers, and for those who’ve never before stepped through the doors of an art museum, Painting Melody unravels art appreciation, celebrating the simple pleasure of seeing and the power of your own perception.

About Mira Chorik

​

“I’m a theatre maker and songwriter.

My work investigates loss and meaning-making through music, community performances and projects, experimental collaborations and site-specific installations. Inspired by research, by stories you have to lean in to hear, by forum theatre, verbatim interviews, and intimate moments that go untold, my work is devised, low-tech, and site-specific.

I facilitate group workshops and conversations, and craft live performance spaces that invite participation, audience connection and emotional intimacy.

I also host the Sunshine Coast Songwriters Roundtable, a supportive space for songwriters to meet and hone the art of storytelling with words and music. I’m blessed to live and work on Jinibara Country.”

Due to the visionary support of the Sunshine Coast Council Creative Industries Investment Program, Anywhere Festivals is thrilled to announce Mira Chorik as one of the creatives Supported by Anywhere Festivals—a groundbreaking new initiative designed to elevate creative work beyond the conventional.
