Fire and Ice by SceneFour

One of the greatest drummers in music history has unveiled a highly limited collection of artwork built from rhythm. Steve Smith, known for his influential catalog of work with Journey and Vital Information, created "Fire and Ice" through the new medium of capturing rhythmic performance and putting it to canvas in a debut collection called "The Fabric of Rhythm."

Highly limited, there are a total of 5 "Fire and Ice" pieces available in the edition, all are numbered and individually signed by Steve Smith.

On the work, Steve Smith states:
"You can see the divergent elements of fire and ice in this piece. You can also see that I was playing my kit with two different colored sticks without crossing from one side of the kit to the other. Because I have been using the Vic Firth Lite Sticks for years - practicing in front of a mirror in a dark room -- I had developed a concept of how to create interesting images using rhythm and motion."
