Mellisugar
(2023)
Carved paper and mixed media on wood panel
40 x 30 in
Cracks in the Temple series

Mellisugar operates as transmission rather than ground.

The form carries signal, not resolution.

Color moves ahead of coherence.

Intensity and exposure share the same frequency.

There is no hierarchy and no resting point.

The work continues without return.
