Crystalweb – Series

Selected images from the Crystalweb series.

A horizontal abstract composition on a black ground. At right, a heavy dark arc with a pitted, metallic surface curves through the frame like the rim of a broken vessel, catching a thin amber highlight along its upper edge. From its interior, an orange and red flare glows, and a pale elongated form rises from it toward the upper left. The left half of the image erupts into a dense spray of fine white splinters and filaments, shot through with violet and magenta haze below and a soft wash of teal and green above. Small white glints scatter through the surrounding darkness.

A horizontal abstract composition centered on a large dark sphere set against a black, lightly mottled ground. Encasing the sphere is a web of faceted, translucent sheets that read as cracked glass or ice, their angular panes catching cool highlights along every edge. At the points where the panes intersect, small magenta and pink nodes glow like lit filaments. Within the sphere, a soft bloom of white, gold, violet, and pale blue light radiates from just right of center, crossed by two thin dark curving lines. A tuft of turquoise and white feathers emerges from the upper left, and a small blue glint sits at the left edge.

A horizontal abstract composition on a dark charcoal ground. A large pale ovoid dominates the frame, its surface and surroundings threaded with fine white branching filaments that spread outward like lightning or frost. Nested within it sits a smaller dark sphere with a rough, mottled texture, pierced by two concentrated bursts of light: a smaller crimson flare at left and a larger yellow-gold burst at center, each radiating fine rays. A cool turquoise glow illuminates the upper left edge of the outer form, while a soft lavender tint washes across its lower portion.

A horizontal abstract composition on a black ground. At center sits a softly glowing spherical form washed in pale pink, mint green, lavender, and cream, its light diffused as though seen through frosted glass. Surrounding and overgrowing it is a dense nest of fine white and rose filaments that radiate outward in every direction, tangling into a web-like mass that blurs the orb’s boundary. A bright turquoise flare glows at the upper left, and thin violet and white threads branch off into the surrounding darkness, trailing toward the upper right and lower left corners.

A horizontal abstract composition on a black ground. A large rounded form fills most of the frame, its outer surface a pale blue-gray crust with a rough, mineral texture that breaks and flakes along the right and lower edges. The crust opens to reveal an interior of angular white and silver shards catching hard light, framed by a dark curving band. At the lower center a vivid red-orange starburst flares outward in fine radiating spines, with thin red lines streaking off toward the left edge and beyond the form. Smaller blue and violet glints appear along the lower left margin.
