Colors Inside One SeaShell

Colors Inside One SeaShell explores repetition and subtle shifts in tone through layered blue fields and measured hand-made marks. Organic stains move across the surface like tide lines, while rhythmic black forms introduce structure and pause. The composition balances spill and control — echoing the tension between water and shore.

During its exhibition, a poet selected the piece for ekphrastic response. Through her words, she described fence posts along pale sand and the quiet sound within silence. Her interpretation expanded the work for me, revealing a landscape hidden within abstraction — a shoreline I had not consciously placed there.

“I now see the fence along the sand and hear the sound of pale silence.”
