EARTH

Water stands under a night sky with the Rocky Mountains in the distance. Rainstorms are falling and feeding the rivers that nurture the land. She cries, healing waters that cleanse and carry away all pain, tears pool into her hands: a fountain and an offering.

Elemental Series in Depth

Standing nude and iconic, I paint the elements and propose a new interpretation of the 5th Aristotelian one. Behind each, a mountain range parallels the four cardinal points (quoting eastern symbolism.) Acknowledging western symbolism, the 4 material elements are represented by female and male (energies) nudes, inhabitants of the day or the night. The golden circle and lines invite parallels with icons and altarpieces. The name of each symbol further separates the image from a simple narrative into an instrument of contemplation.
