A tide of stylized leaves rises in overlapping bands, their cool greens pressed forward by undulating orange contours that read like heatlines or riverbeds, turning botanical growth into a rhythmic topography. The composition stages a dialogue between the dense, dark undercurrent and the ember-red sky above, as if nature is pushing upward against a smoldering atmosphere—resilient, but not untroubled. Repetition becomes meditation here: each leaf a discrete breath, collectively forming a living pattern that suggests renewal unfolding under pressure. The dotted, tactile surface gently arrests the eye, inviting a slower reading of time, season, and persistence.
