Dawn of the Pathogen Landscape

Oil paint on Canvas [2021]

This piece depicts the very start of a landscape being taken over by pathogens. It came to me as an experimental idea, I had a thought of creating a landscape that was dangerous to inhabit, taken over by poisonous microbes. They would soon mould the landscape into a toxic and uninhabitable land in which no human or animal life can live upon. It will become an organ itself, much like the mycelium, however it devours all life and becomes a landscape, grotesque, deformed and deadly.
