Hanan Townshend

Recently, film composer Hanan Townshend recorded original musical compositions based on my recent artwork. It’s a privilege to have a longtime friend and collaborator create music based on the inspiration and feelings evoked from a piece of art. I encourage you to look at the art below and play the musical interpretation Hanan has composed.

Here's some background on composer Hanan Townshend for those who aren't familiar with his creative work. Hanan Townshend is known for his poetic orchestral scoring, cinematic commercial scores, and frequent collaboration with legendary film director Terrence Malick. Townshend's music is described as poetic, spiritual, and sensitive. He enjoys approaching film music from innovation, writing scores as languages of internal atmospheres. His collaborations with directors and producers are often translations of intangible emotive experiences that become part of the deeper exploration of character and subject storytelling.

The rescue is an extremely personal artwork around the themes of vulnerability, honesty, suffering, and our need for love. It’s a love story on a grand scale.  All of us need to be rescued by love, we just don’t know it. The work is also an exploration of our need to help and rescue others who are stuck and hurting.
