Tribute to Jazz (2): Chet Baker - Jérémy Goffart (2012)

Jérémy Goffart plunges us into the world of Jazz with this magnificent portrait of Chet Baker, the world-famous Jazz musician who passed through Liège several times. He is represented with his preferred instrument: The trumpet. Coming out of the trumpet are not notes of music but waves of pale colours, which may be a way to materialise the palette of emotions transmitted by the musician playing. The use of a light-obscure effect magnifies the musician and refers both to the imagination of Jazz and the style of music played by Chet Baker.
