(Lives) are composed like music. Guided by his sense of beauty, an individual transforms a fortuitous occurrence (Beethoven's music, death under a train) into a motif, which then assumes a permanent place in the composition of the individual's life.
- Unbearable Lightness of Being, Milan Kundera

Interplay showcases work in which musicality plays an important role and is translated into visual representation. In their two-dimensional and video works, these artists employ or imply some of the compositional approaches in contemporary music that spur our perception of synchronous events. Motifs such as landscapes, everyday objects and urban noises are exquisitely transformed into visual compositions.
