Forces Beneath the Surface

The Telluric Forms series explores the raw intensity of mineral matter and the hidden forces that shape the earth. Unlike works that look to erosion or memory, these pieces are grounded in the telluric — the deep movements, eruptions, and fractures that define geological presence. Each composition suggests an encounter with matter under pressure, where surfaces resist, break, or transform.

Abstraction guides the series, yet the resonance with geology is undeniable. The images often evoke rock masses, glowing fractures, or molten cores, without settling into literal description. Instead, they invite the viewer into a field of tension: solidity against fragility, stability against rupture, silence against eruption. Telluric Forms is less about depicting a landscape than about sensing its underlying intensity.

The works are available as limited edition fine art prints, produced on museum-grade Hahnemühle paper. These prints emphasize density of tone, depth of texture, and luminous contrasts, turning each digital composition into a tactile presence. Numbered and signed editions ensure rarity, while the materiality of the print enhances the immersive quality of the work.

This series is a continuation of my broader practice, where matter and light become active forces in composition. In dialogue with projects such as Ethereal Solid or Core Archive, Telluric Forms draws on elemental imagery to question how rupture, fracture, and transformation can be reimagined in abstract form.

Works from the series, including Molten Rupture, can be found in the
Unique Editions collection. For collectors and viewers seeking connections to contemporary abstraction, the series also resonates with practices showcased on
Singulart.

Through Telluric Forms, I wanted to create images that hold both weight and lightness, both fracture and cohesion. These works stand at the edge of matter’s resistance, opening a space where geology becomes not a fixed ground but a shifting intensity.
