 A Brief Moment in Time


 Oil on linen panel / 24 x 20

In A Perilous Comfort, apparent composure masks a deeper misconception of the situation. The stillness of the white lions is seen as submission, yet their restraint suggests controlled energy rather than passivity - wildness held temporarily in check.

Together with it's companion piece An Uneasy Accord, the works examine the gap between human interpretation and natural reality The danger is not portrayed as conquered or controlled but as ever-present- and possibly underestimated.
