Igneous Intrusions, 2023

Acrylic paint and marker on canvas

This composition marks the fifth entry in the Line Exploration series, a body of work rooted in a meditative, continuous line practice used to navigate internal chaos. Developed spontaneously while observing an outdoor park landscape, the canvas features tightly woven networks of white and silver paths. The final intervention introduces vibrant yellow lines that cut sharply through the monochromatic background. Upon completion, this visual disruption strongly recalled the geological phenomenon of molten rock fracturing older stone strata. Titled retroactively to reflect this parallel, the work stands as a clean, archival record of intuitive and rhythmic observation.
