This study describes the œuvre of the writer-painter Jean-Claude Pirotte as a “musical landscape”, haunted by melodies, airs of nothing hummed by the intimate ghosts of the author. Life, literature, painting, and music do not have hermetic borders; poems, narratives, drawings, watercolours, and paintings weave in counterpoint, and as if to cheat death, an ostinato against forgetting – the disenchanted place of a melancholic presence in the world.
