Moving Parts: Album Artwork for Lakeshore Rush

On May 9th chamber music ensemble Lakeshore Rush released their debut recording titled Moving Parts. My drawing Higgs Boson Study was selected for the album’s cover. The image references the Higgs boson, an invisible energy field present throughout the universe that imbues other particles with mass. In 2012 the Large Hadron Collider at CERN in Switzerland proved the existence of the Higgs particle. It was discovered by smashing photons and lead ions together to discover smaller particles. Since 1964 it has been a theoretical class of subatomic particles in the Standard Model of physics. It represents centuries of human thought and an exploratory path that leads us towards new horizons. It’s a fitting image for this ensemble’s exploration of new music.
