Untitled 24 (A Dreamlike Tapestry**)

This dense, dreamlike tableau gathers birds, bodies, and foliage into a single swelling canopy, where feathered forms coil like living thoughts and the dark ground reads as both night and subconscious. Warm ochres and mossy greens glint against ashen blues, creating a chiaroscuro that makes the scene feel simultaneously pastoral and uncanny, as if nature itself were remembering a human story. Figures lie suspended between vigilance and surrender—one winged, one prone, one listening—suggesting a fragile truce between instinct and innocence, and the small village embedded within the mass becomes a quiet emblem of civilization nestled inside untamed desire. The composition’s centrifugal movement, driven by repeated beaks and curved backs, turns the image into a circular meditation on refuge: what protects us can also overwhelm us.
