Into the Unconscious

Painting
2026
Acrylic on canvas
18 x 24"
This work explores nature and the unconscious through photo-based collage. Balancing clarity and distortion, it reflects how memory functions: some images remain vivid while others fade and dissolve over time.

“Through the juxtaposition of clear, direct photographic imagery and altered, fragmented elements, the work seeks a balance between stability and transformation. This process reflects the shifting nature of perception, where reality is continuously reconstructed and reinterpreted.Images sourced from various magazine publications, used for collage purposes.”

“My work constructs abstract landscapes from fragmented photographs, exploring insomnia and the tension between control, perception, and uncertainty.”
