The Calm and The Wild is a meditation on the quiet, persistent desire for transformation that lives beneath the surface of both the natural world and ourselves. This collection unfolds in two parallel parts: the horse and the landscape, each reflecting a different expression of the same inner pull.
The horses in these works embody a tension between restraint and freedom. They are not depicted in motion alone, but in moments of pause—alert, aware, and yearning. Their presence speaks to an instinctive knowing: the body remembers what it means to be unbound, even when restricted.
In contrast, the paintings of nature offer a rhythm of ebb and flow. These landscapes exist in a state of purity, unburdened by longing, yet constantly transforming. They breathe, shift, and release without resistance. Together, the horses and the land form a quiet dialogue between yearning and acceptance, asking where we, as humans, locate ourselves between calm and wild.
