Sea of Memories

Description

Oils on canvas. 2011.

This landscape is based on a photo I took close to The Valley of the Kings, Egypt in 2001. I wanted to convey the impression that the statue on the left has fallen and has just hit the ground, sending dust and bits of rock/stone into the air.

At the very most foreground lies an Egyptian mummy (this is taken from the mummy of Seti I), placed there to emphasize the feeling of thousands of years having passed.

This quite a restrained piece for me (I usually add much ornament/detail) but this image called for something much more direct.
