GROVE (2026)

GROVE (2026)
Acrylic on canvas
108 × 122 cm

GROVE distils the landscape into a quiet architectural language of form, colour and rhythm. Soft mineral tones of olive, sand, deep blue and ochre are framed by bold black lines, creating a composition that feels both grounded and contemporary.

Rather than depicting a literal place, the work suggests fragments of coastline, canopy and horizon - inviting each viewer to complete the landscape through memory and imagination. The balance of organic curves and structured geometry creates a calm visual presence that sits comfortably within modern architectural interiors.
