Honorable Mention / 2019 / Fine Art / Abstract

Illuminated spaces

The "illuminated spaces" series tries to express, in a pictorial and colorist way, the endless energy of our origins. The elements collide to sketch dreamed landscape of the universe. Water, air and fire are melted into a unique maelstrom able to create and destroy life. The waterfall is the perfect symbol of it : Space and Time flow in a violent and fruitful revolution, reaching us into a new and invisible frontier. As an endless eruption of fire and light, these massive fine art prints aim to encourage us to meditate on the telluric, organic and spiritual nature of our origins.
