The painting began with a personal Apple Music playlist. Call gathers eighty-four songs around one word: a request, a desire, a frustration, an appeal across a distance. The playlist supplies the material for an image shaped as a phone.

“Téléphone rose” brings its own association to the colour. Layers of pink cover an acid-green ground. The picture can be taken in quickly; its songs keep their separate voices and durations. One phone holds many ways of calling.
