Set against a quiet field of earthen ochre, these scattered “specimens” read like a small altar to deep time—fragments that hold the tenderness of leaves, the cadence of a feather, and the alien precision of an ancient insect. The composition relies on breath and spacing: each shard is given its own pocket of silence, allowing the viewer to move between them as if paging through a naturalist’s memory rather than a catalogue. Muted greens and ash-grays surface gently from the stone, suggesting that life persists as imprint and trace, and that preservation is itself a kind of loss made legible. What emerges is a meditation on impermanence—nature rendered not as spectacle, but as evidence, reverently arranged.
