NO TIME TO EVOLVE

Archived Series: Nature and Mythology in Tension

This series of early works explores the dynamic interplay between nature and mythology, using vibrant oil paintings to depict scenes where natural landscapes are in conflict with artificial and symbolic elements. Each piece immerses viewers in a world where nature is both a force of resilience and vulnerability, often juxtaposed with mythological figures or futuristic visions. The recurring theme of struggle and transformation reflects in my fascination with the tension between the organic and the artificial, setting the stage for future explorations of human identity in a changing, technologically-driven world. Now archived, these select works form a foundational chapter in my journey, representing the evolving relationship between natural forms and abstract concepts that would later develop into deeper explorations of identity, technology, and transformation.
