Ruins
2016
This acrylic painting presents a surreal landscape where architectural ruins merge with natural forms beneath a stylized tree. The composition features white stone structures or fragments in the foreground, set within a verdant ground dotted with flowers and vegetation. Above, a gnarled tree with a luminous canopy extends against a clear blue sky, while the overall palette combines deep blacks, whites, and greens to create a dreamlike atmosphere that blurs the boundaries between decay and growth.
