Series: NUMBNESS
In a state of numbness, nature does not appear calm or restorative. It arrives distorted and unstable—blurred, fractured, and overlaid with intrusive dark forms. Trees, landscapes, and open spaces are no longer separate from the mind observing them; they become surrounded by dense black structures that feel almost creature-like, hovering at the edge of vision.
These forms are not symbolic additions but part of the altered visual field itself. Numbness reshapes perception, turning familiar natural environments into spaces charged with unease, weight, and quiet threat. This work presents nature as it may be experienced when emotional sensation is muted but perception remains active—distorted, heavy, and persistently shadowed.
