Vanish

Vanish is a meditation on the disappearance of the Earth’s wonders: flowers on the brink of extinction, forests thinned into silence, oceans drained of their life-force. These works are not literal depictions of landscapes, they are echoes—hazy recollections of a world that is fading in real time.

Vanish begins with an urgent truth: we are living through an era of profound ecological unraveling. Species vanish before we learn their names. Old-growth forests fall faster than they can regenerate. Coral cities bleach and crumble, losing the vibrant pulse that once sustained entire ecosystems.

The paintings are deliberately oversized, confronting the viewer with the scale of what we stand to lose. Their surfaces blur, dissolve, and drip, as if the images themselves are struggling to hold on. Each canvas becomes a portal into a memory that refuses to stay intact—forms melt, pigments wash downward, and nature’s once-vibrant shapes slip into abstraction. The effect mirrors the fragile way we remember places we love: never sharply, never fully, but as shifting impressions carried in the mind long after the physical world has changed. Each composition exists at the edge of clarity, as if recalled from a dream or recovered from the edges of forgetting.

Vanish is an expression of love steeped in grief, reverence, and responsibility. It asks what it means to love a world disappearing before our eyes — to carry the memory of a flower our children may never see, or to recall forests once dense with life that no longer stand. The series stands as a devotional offering: a gesture of remembrance and an insistent  plea for action before it all vanishes forever.
