Veil of Earth ©2025
40.5 x 48 inches (102.87 x 121.92 cm)
Enamel gold and acrylic on canvas
A quiet yet profound meditation on atmosphere, memory, and the passage of time, “Veil of Earth” unfolds as a layered, immersive landscape that transcends the physical and enters the realm of the ethereal. Created with acrylic and enamel on canvas, the composition is structured in horizontal bands of muted tones—deep blacks, warm earth hues, subdued greens, and a grounding expanse of rich red.
Each layer seems to breathe, shifting between opacity and translucence, as though the canvas holds traces of past landscapes, fleeting moments preserved in veils of pigment. The textured surface, marked with subtle organic imprints, suggests erosion, history, or the quiet marks left by time itself. Near the horizon, a singular golden dot emerges from the darkness—a distant celestial body or a guiding ember, offering both contrast and focus within the composition’s vast stillness.
The work evokes a sense of vastness and reflection, inviting viewers to engage with the subtle shifts in tone and texture, to decipher the delicate interplay of presence and absence. The muted palette and gentle transitions between color fields create a dreamlike, almost meditative experience, as if gazing through mist or across a landscape softened by memory.
Veil of Earth exists in the liminal space between abstraction and landscape, between what is seen and what is felt. It is an invitation to contemplate the layers of time, the weight of history, and the quiet beauty found in the spaces between.
