The Cloud Paintings
A reflection on impermanence, ephemerality.
The sky is reassuringly constant yet ever changing- a beautiful paradox, and reminder that we are fleeting, small in the face of grand natural rhythms and beneath a vast and 'indifferent sky'.
The paintings are composed as snapshots of dissipating clouds, capturing moments in time.
