Title
Floating
Description
This painting explores the idea of “elsewhere” not as a distant place, but as a psychological state. Through layered collage, fractured forms, and shifting planes of colour, it evokes the experience of motionless travel, the quiet drift of the mind beyond the limits of the immediate world.

The space it creates feels both vast and intimate. There is a sense of immensity, yet it is held within the frame, suggesting that expansiveness can exist inside shelter and stillness. The composition does not describe a landscape; it invites reverie. Shapes overlap and open, forming thresholds rather than boundaries and allowing the viewer to enter a suspended realm between memory, imagination, and presence.

Here, “elsewhere” becomes a form of balance, a necessary escape from the fixed certainty of the here and now. The painting offers a moment of contained infinity, where distance creates intimacy and the act of looking becomes a quiet journey inward.
