This series of drawings explores the tension between luminosity and darkness, where light emerges most intensely from saturated black. Using oil pastel and erasure, the artist creates dense, almost reflective marks, interrupted by sharp openings of brightness. The contrast evokes a shifting landscape—oil shimmering on water, reflections dissolving into shadows, or the haunting presence of spilled petroleum staining the surface. Each drawing becomes a fragile equilibrium, where beauty and devastation coexist. The luminous voids cut into the black surface recall both light breaking through and the impossibility of separating water from oil, vision from opacity, memory from erasure.
