DESCRIPTION

Like tree roots that seek water for nourishment, the "Growth Seeker" painting tells the story of adaptive growth, as a paint stroke moves through the painting while changing and morphing over time. As its size, direction, and color changes, the paint stroke re-presents nature as a growth seeking system which holds within it many keys for the future of architectural design.

FROM THE COLLECTION

A hieroglyph is a Greek word that means "sacred carvings". The paintings in this ECOSCRIT series build upon this meaning, as through my artistic process each painting brings forth sacred markings (carved onto paper) that recode the deep inner workings of nature's beauty. In this way, each painting translates nature's most profound and inner poetic beauty as a new hieroglyphic language that awakens and nurtures human enlightenment, by speaking directly to the soul. This new hieroglyphic soul-language that deciphers nature's deep poetic beauty is called ECOSCRIT.
