These abstract screen prints are part of a series that plays on the tension and balance between geometric forms and the ephemeral forces of nature. The compositions bring together precision and atmospheric fluidity, creating a dialogue between permanence and impermanence, structure and motion. Inspired by the shifting patterns of clouds, the linework is generated by continuous movements, resulting in lines that surround and move through the more structured forms.

Through the layering of shape, texture, colour, and transparency, each print captures a fleeting moment where order and flow overlap. The clean geometry of the forms suggests stability, while the surrounding marks and gestures evoke movement and lightness. This interplay of suspension, lightness, and movement threads through the series, blurring the boundaries between material and immaterial.

In this merging, the work gestures towards the possibility that even the most stable shapes can drift, shift, float, and briefly become something else.
