Desert Resilience

"Cross-pollination isn't just a title, it's a metaphor that blossoms across this series of unique (1/1) abstract paintings. The title itself evokes the concept of hybridization, where different elements converge to create something completely new and unique. Using a multidisciplinary approach, the source photographic material is digitally manipulated, layering both contemporary brushed textures and expressive marks from digital tools. The final work is then printed on canvas, and an additional layer of varnish brush strokes added, blurring the boundaries between digital origin and physical form. The abstract style of the paintings further emphasizes the fusion of digital and physical, with elements of both seamlessly interwoven to create visually dynamic compositions. This series invites viewers to explore the boundaries of traditional art forms and embrace the limitless possibilities when different mediums converge, boundaries are challenged, and new forms of expression, emerge.
