‘Split Tree’ is a complex, deeply affecting work that situates landscape not as background, but as archetype, dream, and revelation. Here I fuse lyrical abstraction with mythic architecture, offering a rich visual lexicon of division and reunion, death and metamorphosis. Each panel unfolds a journey through elemental forces—fire, water, and growth—where vegetal forms twist and rupture like memory or myth. Through this alchemy of form and hue, Split…
Tree invokes a rite of passage—mythic, personal, and collective. As in Jungian dream imagery, forms recur in variation—leaf becomes flame, flame becomes limb, limb becomes path.

It is a painting that does not merely depict—but enacts—a psychic process of becoming.

Tillian is an award-winning artist based in Australia whose paintings have been featured in solo and group exhibitions nationally. He describes his artistic landscapes as visual narratives that trace passages in cyclical time and space. Through his works, Tillian explores themes related to anxiety, longing, and ecstatic recognition. In his artistic process, he favors using acrylics and gilding on wood. Tillian's practice bridges painting, mythopoetics, and ecological reflection. Deeply attuned to the natural and spiritual landscapes of the highland landscapes south of Sydney, Tillian often seeks to paint what resists depiction: the numinous, the mythic, the relational pulse between body and terrain. The artist synthesises elements of abstraction, post-symbolism, and visionary ecology to build a new visual lexicon of sacred land.
