Hills at Rest

2024

At first glance this painting looks like a mellow landscape of rocky mountains at sea.
This painting captures the essence of the transformation from human intimacy into something vast and timeless.
What began as two bodies embracing has now become a sweeping, mountainous landscape,
where the forms blend into each other in organic, almost geological shapes.
The warm, pinkish hues suggest a softness and warmth, subtly retaining the memory of the original embrace,
while the sweeping contours and serene waters create a sense of permanence and grandeur.
In this piece, human connection becomes part of nature's timeless structure—solid, grounded, and enduring.
The mountains, barely recognizable as the human figures they once were, evoke the idea that our relationships
and emotional bonds are as resilient and unshakable as the land itself.
It's a meditation on the way our connections might fade in form but persist in essence,
merging with something larger and more enduring than the individual.
