What was Alice Baber’s inspiration for the 'Before Songs' composition?
Baber was inspired by the movement of light and the 'song' of color. Her ovoid shapes represent a visual rhythm intended to evoke a pre-verbal or musical sensation, hence the evocative title 'Before Songs'.
How does Color Field painting influence the visual experience of this piece?
As a Color Field work, 'Before Songs' focuses on the emotional power of color over literal representation. The overlapping translucent layers create a sense of 'pure' space, allowing the viewer to experience light as a physical presence.
