ABOUT
"Why, Oh Why" is a song by Woody Guthrie from the album Songs to Grow On for Mother and Child. The composition is notable for its structural simplicity and repetitive lyrical format, which facilitates ease of participation for both children and adults. Its playful tone and nonsensical content are emblematic of Guthrie’s distinctive artistic approach, particularly his commitment to musical storytelling and accessibility.
The idea behind the illustrations was to create a visual interpretation of the song, its rhythm and feeling, with the goal of achieving iconolinguistic unity, akin to the relationship between music and lyrics.
