Fields of Stillness offers a quiet yet profound meditation on the balance between nature and urban life. In this piece, the grass acts as a substitute for the typical ocean, symbolizing stability and the grounding presence of nature. This dry grass, dotted with cacti, suggests nature’s quiet persistence and reclamation of spaces once dominated by the urban landscape.
The city, rather than towering over the natural world, seems to coexist with it, as though time has allowed nature to reclaim what was once purely industrial. A lone cat, sitting still on one of the buildings, reinforces the sense of calm, its poised presence a reflection of the stillness that nature brings to chaotic urban environments.
The sky, crafted from ripped pages of books, hints at the stories and knowledge that connect us to both worlds. The simple moon and clouds evoke a feeling of quiet reflection, where both the city and nature are in perfect harmony.
With dry flowers scattered throughout the scene, Fields of Stillness encourages viewers to pause, reflect, and consider the ever-present, subtle power of nature—its ability to reclaim, heal, and coexist, even in the most unexpected places.
