oil painting on 8×8 wooden panel
Skull and Bloom 1 explores the coexistence of decay and renewal—where mortality and growth are not opposing forces, but part of the same continuous cycle. The skull anchors the composition with a sense of permanence and inevitability, while organic forms bloom outward, interrupting and intertwining with its structure. Through layered texture and controlled abstraction, the piece creates a tension between stillness and expansion, suggesting that life persists even within collapse. The imagery resists finality, instead presenting transformation as ongoing—where endings give way to emergence, and decay becomes the foundation for something new.
