  • Description

    Matthews’ first commission for the British prog rock supergroup Asia.

    Their manager approached him requesting artwork suggestions for their fourth studio album, which had no title at the time.

    Following Asia tradition, it would have to be a single word, beginning and ending with the letter ‘a’. Matthews rummaged through his dictionary and came up with ‘Aqua’.

    He incorporated two elements requested by the band, ‘water’ and ‘space’, into several sketchesand presented the results to keyboardist Geoff Downes and vocalist and bassist John Payne. They chose this one.
    The implication of the piece is that God’s creation remains while Man’s aspirations fall into ruin.
