Rather than direct representations of landscapes, The Weight of Air emphasised the essences of spaces as well as the objects and situations within, relating these to sentiments and ideas in the subconscious. It seeks to evoke contemplation about the way we live and the ties between all beings.
The Weight of Air continues a search for quiet. While I was walking through parts of Iceland last year, estranged from family and friends at the other side of the world, geologically active landscapes revealed themselves to constitute a living, breathing ecosystem with its own set of rules. I was led to contemplate on philosophical questions related to the relationships between oneself and the environments, and how one lives and loves.
Hidden emotions and thoughts surface, as one attempts to be still.
