Beyond the Hills, 2023, oil on linen, 65.5 x 65.5 cm
This painting was done from two different locations. The hill and clouds were painted first but I wanted a line of trees appearing above and beyond the hill's edge. Since there were no trees there I looked around for a set of trees that would suit the idea I had in mind. My concern was not really the trees, hills and clouds, but the possibility of taking the viewer's gaze into an unknown place. Like something that is an existential journey.
