Ink and Etching on Claybord. 2022 Amidst the moss covered forest emerges a love story trapped in a liminal world between the natural manifestation of life and death. A mysteriously enthralling composition with a harmony of light and dark shades elegantly depicts the theme of the unbroken nature of true love with the ideal balance of liveliness and demise that has been the nature of life. Dead yet animated, a skeletal couple refuses to be parted keeping their hands clasped. They are seated on a bench consumed with new growth and inscribed with the words “4eVer With You”. In this space, all of the moments of the pair’s lives come together; the places they loved, the loyal pet they shared affection for and the memories that still ignite their unending love for one another. Their souls were so mystically intertwined that even death couldn't end the intensity of their affection, illustrating the idea of endless commitment, devotion, and admiration. The pull of death and loss of mortality is not strong enough to sever their love and their everlasting bond continues to radiate.
