This layered cityscape is built like memory itself—structures rising from a lattice of scraped pigment and softened edges, where architecture feels less constructed than recalled. Warm ochres and ember oranges press forward with human immediacy, while chalky whites and grays recede into a hush of weather and time, turning facades into quiet witnesses. The composition’s stacked planes compress distance and perspective, suggesting a lived-in density where private interiors and public streets dissolve into one interdependent body. In its deliberate abrasion and luminous wear, the work proposes urban life as a fragile palimpsest—continually rebuilt, continually fading, yet held together by light.
