Structural Originals
SYSTEMS BECOMING LANDSCAPE · 2025 TO ONGOING
Before anything is painted, I build the place. Some of those builds are finished as images in their own right. These are the Structural Originals.
Each environment is modeled in three dimensions to set scale, structure, and spatial logic. It can later lead to a painting, but it does not depend on one.
A Structural Original can stand as a finished image, be released as a print or a certified digital edition, or move into painting.
