'What
Charette does is let the muses guide his art into a place he defines
as spiritual.“When I close my eyes, I see things. When it’s
quiet, I hear music,” Charette said. “I don’t
fight the muses.”'

"Jim,
your work is like a primordial soup for the ears and eyes. Sounds
and images bump, they bounce, they sometimes combine. Then they
crawl out and evolve. Where's the giant knife switch that brings
in the lightning? I want to be the guy who throws it!"

"Jim
Charette is not a performer,just simply an artist experimenting
with sound who's improvised and recorded over 600 pieces of
music in the last three years.He's never written down a single
piece of his compositions,it's all been improvised pretty much
by a one man band"-Dr.Radar

"Jim
Charette (Fall River,Mass.) creates work that spans media,utilizing
paint,pen,video and sound to render a frenzied humanism.
He
looks at the city and the usual faces,the typical exchanges that
occur in dark alleys and broad daylight.His community is every
community.where individuals dissolve into archetypes operating
within a larger setting and circumstance.What is produced through
this introspection is inclusive,covering a wide range of time
and connecting to a greater cultural experience."
