My new project that I’ve been researching for the last year or so, I’ve finaly got out and about and taken some shots.
Statement
In “Fractured Whispers,” I explore the enchanting realm of Celtic-Atlantic rainforests, drawing inspiration from their rich tapestry of myths, folklore, and imagination. Influenced not only by the captivating allure of the untold stories these ancient landscapes hold, I invite viewers to venture into the mystical.
As I wander through the moss-laden canopies, I become acutely aware of the subtle presence of something bigger and greater than me. Arboreal visages, appear as whispers from another realm, inviting us to explore the delicate balance between reality and myth, glimpses of the extraordinary in the
seemingly ordinary, hidden amongst the trees.
Through gum printing, I infuse each image with the very essence of the rainforest itself. By using foraged pigments, derived from the forest floor, a symbiotic relationship emerges between art and nature. The resulting prints become a conduit, bridging the tangible and the intangible, the seen and the unseen, offering viewers a glimpse into the ancient heart of the rainforest. “Fractured Whispers” rekindles our connection to nature, urging protection of these dwindling rainforest fragments. Echoing timeless wisdom, it guides us to understand our place within the natural world.
Beneath the roof of sleeping leaves, the dream of leaves unfold.
