Untitled (Goats and Ruins)

In this work, the pastoral calm of cattle becomes a fractured apparition, their bodies tessellated into pale planes that hover between presence and erosion. The composition stages a quiet confrontation: organic weight and warmth press against a rigid architecture of vertical posts and a ruin-like gateway, as if memory itself were being held in a precarious pen. Muted earth tones and dense, blade-like grasses create a claustrophobic enclosure, while the broken light across the animals reads as both camouflage and wound—suggesting the vulnerability of rural life under the slow, structural pressures of change.
