«It is overwhelmingly apparent when considering Malivanis collection that she is fundamentally moved by music; her line of work entitled «Seeing Music» radiates with the vitality of life and vibrates with an intense sense of movement that has the rare ability to encompass the magical aura of complete concertos and symphonies».

«The explosive tones and gestures within ‘In A Summer Garden create a subtle but powerful connection with Amadeus Mozart, who is famously said to have seen sounds through hues. Whilst the abundance of colour allows the spectator to observe a manifestation of synesthesia, the correlations run far deeper; Mozarts predilection for composing uplifting divertimenti for dances is vivaciously rendered through the prodigious sense of joy that exudes from Malivanis work. Mozarts study of irregular phrase lengths reflects his rejection of Baroque styles of music, which is mirrored in Malivanis avant garde approach that shares the philosophical exploration of unprecedented creative methods with the Futurist artistic movement, particularly when considering the visual creations of such artists as Giacomo Balla and Umberto Boccioni as well as the musical scores of Filippo Marinetti».

For the Artist, music represents an inexhaustible source of inspiration. One of the most difficult goals of artists depicting music on canvas is to convey its rhythm, brilliance, and uniqueness in abstract compositions.
