“The series ‘Dust’ is a gallery of romantic ‘paintings’ that capture the moment of incarnation, the emptiness and the chaos precipitating the birth of the world as described in Greek mythology. Each image is a confined space in which one can observe the interplay of order and disorder; light and shadow; descent and ascent; and fog and clarity. Each image is a mirror of an era in permanent quest for renewal and rebirth. The bodies are covered in ashes, an echo of Ash Wednesday and the myth of the Phoenix.”
