Winter Morning

This work belongs to the Landscape series, where the image approaches recognisable forms while remaining suspended between abstraction and reality. The painting emerges from a state of foreboding — a moment of fragile calm marked by an unspoken sense of rupture. Tree-like verticals appear as human presences, standing and remembering. Against the muted ground, red accents punctuate the surface like traces that cannot be absorbed or erased. The landscape carries memory not as narrative, but as residue — what remains after violence enters the field of perception. Rather than illustrating an event, the work functions symbolically, transforming landscape into a space of collective memory. Here, nature becomes a witness, holding loss, endurance, and the persistence of presence beyond devastation.
