Wakefield’s collaboration with Steven Tyler and Janie’s Fund features three artworks created from the re-recording of “Janie’s Got A Gun.” There is one original and 33 limited edition pieces of each artwork. The result is a visually stunning representation of the audio, taking on an entirely new art form. Wakefield’s artwork has been described as a “truly unique visual expression of sound.” His creations begin by digitally manipulating, shaping, and coloring sound waves generated from a studio recording of the song. At the end of its first year, an outpouring of support from donors across 38 countries helped raise more than $1.9 million for Janie’s Fund, allowing Youth Villages to provide more than 56,000 days of care for abused and neglected girls. Janie’s Fund provides proven ways to address the trauma of sexual and physical abuse in children and through the help of Tyler, have been able to expand these services to help more girls. Janie’s Fund was created by Tyler in partnership with national nonprofit Youth Villages. Now, with the creation of Janie’s Fund, he is helping girls heal from the trauma of abuse and neglect. Through “Janie’s Got a Gun”, Tyler gave a voice to abused girls and women. The project with Soundwaves Artist Tim Wakefield has produced unique and distinctive digital artworks on canvas to be sold through the Soundwaves Art Foundation to support the fund. Steven Tyler is bringing the re-recording of “Janie’s Got A Gun” to life to support his philanthropic initiative Janie’s Fund.
