Untitled 1 (The Tree of Life)

A luminous, oval canopy—half tree, half sacred vessel—holds a river of white, vein-like filigree that reads as memory, breath, and ancestral current coursing through a cool blue interior. Around this central life-form, the spare, rhythmic silhouettes of hunters, dancers, animals, and ritual emblems orbit like a communal chorus, turning the warm ochre ground into a living field of story and ceremony. The composition balances stillness and pulse: the tree’s rooted trunk anchors the scene while the surrounding figures animate it, suggesting a worldview where nature is not backdrop but the very archive of kinship and survival. In its folk-symbolic economy of line, the work becomes an offering—an intimate cosmology in which human movement, animal presence, and vegetal spirit are braided into one continuous, protective shelter.
