Planktons in Sunlit Ocean is a 5x4 foot oil painting capturing the quiet chaos of natural rhythms. Using his wet twine technique on damp canvas, Raj allows pigment and string to collide without a predetermined plan, emphasizing presence over control. Sweeping black and white arcs suggest microscopic life stirred by currents, reflecting the invisible systems that shape the organic world. By choosing a monochromatic palette, Raj ensures that structure, light, and shadow remain the primary subjects. Ultimately, the work serves as an elemental meditation on emergence, inviting viewers to look beneath the surface of both the ocean and human thought.
