About this work
Inside the painting.
Two crystalline deer face one another across a ring of intertwined branches. Their pale forms emerge from a deeply textured blue-green surface.
The deer act as guardian, threshold and mirror: alert presences that invite us to stand between earth and sky, past and future. Their branching forms connect ideas of protection, renewal and enduring love.
