Back to the Garden Catalogue
Back to the Garden drifts between memory and dream — a vivid return to the wild, unguarded beauty of the natural world. In this body of work, nature breathes through vivid colours, familiar forms, and playful, wandering lines that spring from the heart of my sketchbook.
Here, foliage curls into symbols, figures dissolve into light, and the familiar becomes enchanted. Realistic brushstrokes meet playful doodles, creating spaces that feel both timeless and free.
Each painting invites the viewer into a world where the pressures of everyday life melt away — a return to simplicity, purity, and connection with the natural world.
Back to the Garden is a meditation visualised — a space where we can rediscover innocence, curiosity, and the wildness of the natural environment. It is an invitation to slow down, breathe deeply, and remember the simple joys that are always waiting just beyond the noise.
Balmy Hallucinations Catalogue
Inspired by the personal and complex nature of the human psyche, I aim to capture the summits, depths, and everyday moments of our existence, weaving a captivating tapestry of shared emotions, experiences, and expressions.
In our lifelong pursuit of liberation from the pressures of everyday life, many explore a spectrum of solutions — from meditation to intoxicating distractions — even imposing physical distance from the day-to-day. It is the desire to transcend limitations and live in escapism that guides this body of work.
Balmy Hallucinations visualises adolescent nostalgia, blending narratives of forgotten, transient moments that drift between reality and a shimmering dream or trip. The journey unfolds through comforting, sun-drenched locations where warm fragrant breezes, vibrant urban streets and passing cars evoke freedom, movement, and the longing to slip beyond the everyday.
