EMPIRE OF DREAMS (2005)
Acrylic on Gessoboard - 28” x 22”

A world of concrete works in disarray, thrown about by some unknown cataclysm. 1/3

#fineart #personalvisions #portals #imaginativerealism

Seated high atop a slender concrete support, a woman sits hugging her knees. The hem of her white dress spills down from her perch. As seen through the tilted wreckage of stone slabs, her face is bathed in light. As she faces a sun unseen, long shadows fall behind her, cast by the rebar protruding from the nearest facade. The surface is chipped, pitted and worn through to expose the rusted skeleton beneath once smoothly constructed stone. In the immediate foreground, a key hangs looped over a short outcrop of rebar.
