The Wind is  in from Africa -  (after Joni Mitchell's Carey ) by Peter Anderson  Image: Titled after Joni Mitchell’s “Carey,” written in 1971 on Crete, this work recalls the same summer when I, too, spent several weeks on the island. Pale ochres, creams, and soft blues evoke the limestone cliffs and sea light of Matala, while rhythmic lines drift like wind and melody. Within The Condition of Music series, the piece translates Mitchell’s song into visual harmony — a meditation on memory, movement, and the enduring rhythm of the wind from Africa.
