Saturn is a solo piano piece created through a collaborative project with a visual artist exploring planetary themes. Inspired by planetary imagery and symbolism, the work emerged through an ongoing dialogue between painting and music. Among the many pieces developed through this process, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune evolved into complete musical works. The series has been presented alongside live painting performances and later became part of a collaboration with a filmmaker, who paired the music with a century-old silent film to create a new audiovisual work.
