The Call of the Abyss
What reaches for the surface, and what pulls it back down.
The series
A single hand breaks the surface of a dark, restless sea — reaching, grasping, uncertain whether it's rising or already sinking. This piece sits at the edge of two opposing pulls: the will to stay above water, and the quiet weight of the depths calling it back down.
It shares the same classical drawing discipline as the rest of my work, but strips the composition down to almost nothing — a hand, a horizon, and the water itself doing most of the talking.
The piece
The Call of the Abyss
A single hand, tattooed and bare, breaks through black water beneath a heavy grey sky — reaching up, or letting go.

I aim to represent the intangible: the dualities that govern our existence.
