This series approaches the relationship between humans and nature through the viewpoint of the wellbeing that natural spaces provide us, and its contribute to calmer emotional states, as well as to emotional processing of difficult emotions. Raw explores the tranquil transformation that occurs when inner emotional landscapes are given space and allowed to exist, without constriction. It connects what happens within with our surrounding landscapes: how these physical atmospheres influence our mental states and wellbeing. In this way, Raw underlines the interconnection between humans and environment as essential to our wellbeing, and how this acknowledgment is essential in rekindling the relationship we have with nature, particularly urgent in the current climate scenario.

This “topography of the interior” emerged from the observation of water ripples by the seashore, during a calm, contemplative regular practice. Each painting symbolises a specific emotional state and the inevitable evolving quality of said emotion in our bodies and minds, in a similar way to the impermanence of water phenomena.
