Into the blue silence
This alcohol ink painting on Yupo paper evokes a powerful, dreamlike descent into the depths of oceanic mystery. A symphony of blues—ranging from deep indigo to glacial turquoise—creates a fluid seascape that feels both tranquil and immense. There's a sense of movement and stillness intertwined, like the hush beneath a crashing wave or the moment just before surf meets shore.
On the right, dark organic forms rise like underwater rock arches or skeletal reef structures, their edges etched and weathered, as if shaped by ancient tides. In contrast, the left side opens up into a luminous, layered sea, dotted with cellular patterns like froth on a breaking wave.
The piece holds the energy of the sea at twilight—when light fades and the water begins to speak in shadow.
Beneath the weight of a wavering sky,
the sea exhales in shades of forgetting.
All sound is softened here—
a hush held in cobalt and smoke,
where time drifts like silt
through the hollow bones of stone.Shapes flicker, then vanish,
as if memory itself were liquid,
washed and worn by centuries
of unseen tides.This is the quiet beyond language—
a cathedral of water and shadow
where light falters
and everything begins again.
