Evening Passage (2014)
Acrylic on Archival Paper, 18 x 24 inches
An incredibly moody, dense, and psychological composition that explores the silent boundaries of the shadow. The upper half of the paper is dominated by a heavy, atmospheric cloud of charcoal and deep olive green, pierced only by a singular, burning slash of low-lit crimson. Below, this dense compression opens up into a vast, fluid wash of deep, oceanic blue.
Operating at the intersection of psychodynamic insight and Buddhist philosophy, this striking division of space serves as a powerful threshold—capturing the exact, delicate moment where conscious clarity slips beneath the surface into the vast, restorative waters of the unconscious mind. It honors the internal labor of letting go, mapping the quiet bravery required to transition through the dark intervals of a personal journey.
