Migrant Labour (Abstract Diptych)

Two companion panels unfold like fragmented memories of a shoreline, where charcoal-black forms—part vessel, part carcass—push against a bleached, weathered ground that reads as both sea-spray and erasure. The composition is built on abrasion and drift: smeared lines, scumbled greys, and sudden bruises of red suggest impact, warning, or the stubborn pulse of life amid wreckage. Negative space is not emptiness here but atmosphere—fog, salt, distance—holding the heavier masses in a tense suspension between sinking and resurfacing. In their near-symmetry, the works propose a quiet narrative of return and repetition, as if catastrophe and recovery are twin tides that keep rewriting the same scene.
