About this artwork
This coloured photographic artwork is part of a series, photographed from a helicopter in 1982 from the perspective of a birds eye, using a film camera. This is an exclusive edition of 5.
In this piece, I captured the raw harmony between nature and human intervention using analogue photography. The concentric arrangement of timber evokes rhythm and balance, while the subtle colors enhance its organic warmth. I wanted to convey the pulse of creation—how… something as simple as wood transforms space and energy, inviting viewers to feel grounded yet inspired in their own environment.
