Threshold of Actuality

This work pays homage to nature and represents the transition between abstraction and actuality. Each piece resembles something recognizable but resists becoming fixed. I am drawn to the moment of transition when an image hovers between intuition and representation.

Abstraction allows me to work instinctively, responding to gesture, texture, and movement without the constraints of literal meaning. By using a cyanotype technique with palm fronds, elements of actuality emerge to function not as destinations but as thresholds. These moments of recognition invite the viewer in, while the surrounding ambiguity asks them to remain open, to question what they are seeing and why they see it that way.
