From Monochrome to Olive Green

This work, executed in oil pastel, constructs a monochromatic abstract field where subtle tonal shifts evoke layered imagery. Within this restrained surface, references to a ship, a castle, stepping stones, and the human soul emerge as symbolic traces rather than literal forms. These elements dissolve into one another, suggesting passage, protection, journey, and interiority. The abstraction transforms these motifs into a unified emotional landscape, where material gesture and symbolic meaning coexist in quiet tension.
