Readers of a certain age and sophistication level remember “Sound and Vision” as the bouncy fourth track on David Bowie’s classic 1977 record Low, providing a stark contrast to the moody, ambient meanderings on the album’s second side.

The title inspired Hecho a Mano to blend those two mediums in an exhibition, featuring work by visual artists inspired by songs they selected. Lamy visual artist, designer, and self-proclaimed “vinyl lover” Tony Calzaretta chose the song “Changes” — but not Bowie’s 1971 classic. He picked Charles Bradley’s 2016 cover of the third track on Black Sabbath’s 1972 album Vol. 4. His piece appears under the name High Desert Broadcast Service, the studio he runs with his wife, Amy, who also has work in Sound and Vision.

The show features creations by 30 artists. Others from the Santa Fe area are Caitlin Carcanero, Jason Garcia, Kat Kinnick, Thais Mather, Daniel McCoy, Miranda Morehouse, Deborah Stein, Andrew Taylor, and Tuscany Wenger. Kinnick selected a piece of music by Albuquerque-based Heather Trost.

The next show at Hecho a Mano is La Vida Carnaval, featuring festival figures, masks, and drawings created by ceramic artist George Rodriguez. It runs November 7–30.
