layers of reality
An Exploration Through
Nature’s Infinite Canvas
in this body of work we explore the
LAYERS OF LIFE
—the delicate yet powerful interplay between existence and essence. Life, as it is experienced, is a series of interwoven moments, thoughts, and sensations that accumulate over time, leaving behind subtle traces of our journey. Each experience, like the rings of a tree or the sediment of an ancient riverbed, builds upon what has come before, shaping the contours of our being.
Similarly, we are reminded that
Layers of the body
—are not merely physical. Beneath the skin, our muscles and bones hold the stories of our actions, our choices, our growth, like maps of our personal evolution, marked by the passage of time.

And then there is
Layers of reality
—the unseen forces that govern the universe, that bind us to the earth and to each other. What we see, what we touch, what we know, is but a small fraction of a far more complex and intricate reality. Like the atmosphere that encircles the planet, this layer envelops us, often invisible, but always present, shaping how we perceive and relate to the world.
This collection of work invites you to explore these layers, to reflect on how they intertwine and shape our understanding of both self and world. It is an invitation to pause, to look beyond the surface, and to delve into the quiet depths where life, body, and reality coexist in a delicate dance.
