Accretion of Becoming

Carved paper, mixed media on wood panel

Ashes series

Accretion of Becoming continues the Ashes series into its next phase.

The surface still carries evidence of rupture, but the energy has shifted.

Combustion no longer collapses inward. It gathers mass.

Nearly fifty layers compress, erode, and recombine into bands of color that feel geological and celestial at once.

What once burned now coheres. Fragments accumulate. Pressure organizes.

This work marks a turning point within Ashes. Not the end of fire, but its refinement into momentum.
