My World: Floating in Ambiguity
Medium: Acrylic on Canvas
Size: 4ft x 4ft
Creation Date: 2020
Collection: Ephemeral Atmosphere
My World (2020), from the Ephemeral Atmosphere Collection, is an exploration of personal space as a shifting, layered, and elusive landscape. This 48 x 48 inch acrylic on canvas features translucent layers of grays, blues, and soft pinks, creating a world both fragile and vast.
Forms float without clear borders, drifting into each other like overlapping memories or dreams. The painting resists resolution, leaving the viewer suspended in a space of ambiguity.
In this way, My World connects to the works of Julie Mehretu, whose layered abstractions map fractured, imagined geographies. Like Mehretu, I am interested in how spaces can hold multiple, conflicting narratives, how abstraction can evoke both place and feeling simultaneously.
My World is not a map of territory, but a map of emotion — a space where the viewer is invited to float, to drift, and to imagine.
