Spatial Journey (2023) is an exploration across distance — a painting that moves between dimensions, evoking the rhythm of thought, orbit, and expansion. This 48 x 72 inch acrylic on canvas work from the Ephemeral Atmosphere Collection is both grounded and cosmic, mapping a voyage through space that’s internal as much as imagined.
The composition features sweeping lines, orbital rings, and scattered geometric marks that pulse across a field of indigo, pearl white, and stardust gray. The strokes suggest trajectory — like stars caught mid-arc, or thoughts tracing their own orbits. There’s no single focal point. Instead, the eye travels, drifts, revisits.
I painted Spatial Journey while reflecting on nonlinear paths — how progress doesn’t always follow a straight line, how exploration is rarely orderly. The painting became a visual map of movement through uncertainty, through space, through self.
This work resonates with the energetic abstraction of Julie Mehretu, whose layered lines and marks conjure motion, systems, and dislocation. Like Mehretu, I view space not just as expanse, but as experience — a shape we travel through, and that travels through us.
Spatial Journey doesn’t claim to chart anything specific. It suggests. It floats. It gives you a direction without needing a destination.
As part of the Ephemeral Atmosphere Collection, this piece embraces wonder — not the kind you arrive at, but the kind you wander in.
