Encounters 3 (Cityscape on Green)

This vivid, map-like village unfolds as a mosaic of faceted rooftops and stacked façades, where thick black contours hold back the exuberance of saturated reds, violets, and citrus tones. The composition toggles between intimacy and distance: dense architecture crowds the foreground while the landscape recedes into simplified green planes, as if memory has compressed the world into its most essential rhythms. Light is not rendered as atmosphere but as a structural force—color becomes illumination, stitching together streets, windows, and waterways into a single, pulsing fabric. Beneath its playful geometry, the scene suggests the fragile choreography of community: individual dwellings pressed together, distinct yet inseparable within the larger terrain.
