A free improvisation by Cheryl Pyle - flute, Urbuli Baba - drums, and Max Ridgway - guitar & bass, recorded March 3-11, 2024. Born in 1966, Matt Sesow was raised in rural Nebraska. On a summer evening when he was eight at an airfield near his home, he was struck by the propeller of a landing airplane. The accident resulted in his left arm being severed and the loss of his left hand. Without formal art education, Matt Sesow discovered painting as a hobby. He painted in the evenings and on weekends and began selling his work to Outsider art collectors in 1995. "My paintings are the emotional response to a traumatic past," Sesow explains. " [They are] the road to healing, and the confidence of finding a new language to express feelings felt but never shared. While some people see my paintings as angry or aggressive, many of my collectors and fans (including myself), see my work as hopeful, joyous, and eager to take on the world!"
