In Astral Incision, the focus becomes personal. The raw wound on a human torso symbolizes the deep, intimate connection between humanity and Earth. From this wound, a single flower blooms, a metaphor for both our vulnerability and resilience. The piece underscores our survival as tied to Earth's vitality, urging us to nurture rather than destroy. It is a reflection on the lasting impact we have on the planet, with the potential for renewal if we choose a more responsible path.
