"Mudpots" - Original Painting

Inspired by geothermal mudpots, "Mudpots" explores the tension between opposing forces like stillness and movement, order and chaos, warmth and coolness. Concentric rings pull the eye inward while sweeping currents carry it back out again, creating a landscape that feels both geological and cosmic.

Painted in front of a live audience, the work embraces spontaneity while reflecting on the balance that can exist between contradictory states. Rather than resolving these opposites, the painting invites them to coexist, revealing beauty in the spaces where contrast becomes harmony.
