About Artwork: Nancy Mooslin's work is interdisciplinary, a visualization of music where musical pitch is represented by color, meter by measurement and timbre by form and texture. The "Great River/Chants" series is inspired by journeys the artist has taken on the Mekong, Ganges, Nile and Seine Rivers and her interest in sacred chants. In these pieces photographs taken by the artist of details of the surface of the rivers are overlaid with the music of specific chants, Buddhist chants on the Mekong, Hindu on the Ganges and the Call to Prayer on the Nile and Gregorian Chants on the Siene. These culturally and geographically important rivers, like so many on our planet, are in trouble. Pollution, dam projects, and saltwater intrusion from sea level rise threaten the viability of the waters and the lives of all who depend on them. Mooslin creates these images as prayers for the rivers. The rich harmonics of the chants float on the surface of the rivers and integrate with the rhythmic, repetitive motion of the water.

About Artist: Nancy Mooslin is a Los Angeles based visual artist who did her undergraduate work in painting at UCLA and received an MFA in painting from California State University Long Beach. In addition to her studio work, she has been active in the public art arena completing projects for the cities of Reno, NV and Whittier, Ventura, Anaheim, Escondido, Laguna Beach, Sunnyvale and West Hollywood, and Palm Desert, Newport Beach, Pasadena, CA and Boston MA. Her studio work and most of her public work is a visualization of musical theories, harmonics, and compositions. She has collaborated often with composers and choreographers and taught at Chapman University and the Laguna Beach College of Art, CA. Mooslin has an extensive history of solo and group exhibitions and is included in a long list of public and private collections. She was featured in a PBS SoCal broadcast about her work and was awarded a 2015 residency at the Virginia Center for Creative Arts, a 2016 residency at le Moulin a Nef, in Auvillar France, a 2018 Residency at Sanskriti Foundation in New Delhi, India, A 2023 residency at Tyrone Guthrie Center in Ireland, and a 2024 residency at RUC Rural Contemporary in the Italian Alps.
