Interplay
Works on raw canvas in Charcoal

This body of work explores the interconnectedness that exists between us and our environment, emphasizing the balance of shadow and light, as well as the dynamic relationship between man and nature, and artist and medium.

In the context of humanity and nature, it highlights the ongoing and intricate relationship between the two, where they mutually influence and shape each other. The work also reflects on the limitations we impose on ourselves and the potential for growth beyond those boundaries, promoting a more open and expansive perspective on life.

Throughout the intuitive creation process, the medium itself informed the artwork, facilitating an interplay between elements within compositions and the dry, powdery medium of burnt wood and water on raw canvas. Figures within the pieces symbolize the intertwining of humanity and nature, with limbs merging with branches and faces reflecting the landscapes they inhabit or hope to. The eternal dance between humanity and nature, artist and medium, mingle into a harmonious interplay, inviting contemplation on our place in the vast, interconnected world.
