This diptych explores the 'soulscape' as a threshold between the visible and the imagined. Utilising a distinctive metallic palette, the works depict rocks and trees not as mere matter, but as mystical signposts to an 'otherworld'. The series captures a sense of longing and enchanted mystery, while simultaneously reflecting inner wounds and fragmentation. It is a journey to the boundary of memory, where mysterious forms gently take shape, transforming the ruggedness of nature into a vessel for intense inner experience and spiritual transition.
