Nature #15

Paul C. Blake’s work reflects the interchangeable positions and interconnections between flora and fauna in the evolving landscape concerning contemporary wilderness. He constructs this environment using continuous outlines that divide the paper into organic shapes resembling both bird profiles and rolling terrain. By filling these overlapping sections with transparent layers of vibrant color and stippled textures, Blake visualizes what he describes as nature's discordant harmony. A single feather rests at the center of the composition, grounding the abstract geometries in a physical element of the wild.
