Into the Jungle

In the thick Jungle the foliage becomes so dense and incredibly harmonious. This charcoal drawing expresses the artists' interest in the very complex symbiosis that the original human beings had with their environment. The questioning of what is a "home" based on he idea of the "home tree" that feeds and protects us from danger. The jungle, in this case, becomes a metaphor for a place of safety that cand both protect us and also bring us joy.
The elf-character in the middle of the picture features as a reminder of our own mortality - a thinkings man way of understanding the road between existence and non-existence.
