Assemblage on canvas with neon

This mixed media piece centers around a sculptural pine wood element, grounding the work in natural texture and warmth. Surrounding and interacting with the wood are layered elements of photo collage, pencil sketching, and paint pen, each mark revealing a tension between precision and instinct. A touch of gold leaf adds a glint of sacredness, elevating the everyday into the iconic.

A custom neon element pulses softly through the composition, like a wave in the ocean, bringing a contemporary edge and literal glow to the work. The contrast between raw, organic materials and industrial illumination evokes a quiet dialogue between nature and modernity, permanence and ephemerality.

Each layer has been intentionally built to invite close viewing, offering moments of intimacy, memory, and mystery. This piece isn’t just seen; it’s felt - an object that bridges the tactile world and the imagined one.
