Painting "Horizontal Drift" By Paul Maxwell
Song "Horizontal Drift" Composed By: Jared C. Balogh 

“Horizontal Drift”

Titling my paintings is often a challenge - especially if the painting is non-figurative and I have made no conscious allusions to objects or events outside of the painting (in other words, the painting has no illustrational content).


Consider the case of my painting titled “Horizontal Drift”: though the title is intriguing and a careful examination of its design reveals several horizontal bands of varying definition, I no longer recall why I chose to use the words horizontal and drift in the title. I have used the word “drift” in the title’s of other works (“Asian Drift”, for instance).


A title’s primary function is to identify the painting for inventory and accounting purposes. A number would probably work just as well although words can be useful in giving a hint as to the artist’s intentions. I prefer not to dictate too much meaning, letting the viewers find their own.


What could the word “drift” possibly mean in the title of this non-figurative painting? I consulted my dictionary and found a few exciting possibilities but I have decided to live with not knowing, exactly, and letting my imagination do what it will.

I am a trumpet player using effects pedals and also using a small analogue modulator through effects for atmostpheric background noises. Last project was 'Infernal Three' which  was for two years, it consisted of me on trumpet and a drummer and guitarist doing short 'filmic' sound-scapes/sketches.  Occassionally I play in a free improvisation collective called 'Helectite' based in Newcastle with a large floating pool of members. My current main project is with an artist L.P.Ponor working on a joint project with various other people to make videos.
