Untitled 11 (Blue Forest)

A dense canopy of overlapping leaf-forms drifts across the surface like a slow tide, its cool blues and slate-greens muffling the world into contemplative hush. The composition’s shallow space—compressed into interlocking ovals and teardrops—turns nature into a rhythmic pattern, while subtle shifts in tone suggest light filtering through layered growth rather than striking it directly. At the center, a faint, branching line reads like a trunk or vein, anchoring the abstraction and hinting that beneath this soothing camouflage lies a fragile structure holding memory together. The work becomes a meditation on shelter and concealment—how abundance can both protect and quietly overwhelm.
