About the Surface Series
The surface is the gatekeeper of the largest landscape on earth. It is an unbreakable mirror that forever divides two worlds, one which breathes air the other which breathes water. But unlike the mirrors on land, the surface is one we can step into.
This is the first paint in the series which explores the surface of the ocean as a piece of liquid architecture. Until the age of photography every painting of the water was approximation captured over time. Through photography we were afforded the first, singular view of the water in suspended animation.
