In Romp in the Swamp, the fertile chaos of nature is reimagined through a surrealist lens, where the landscape pulses with a near-biological urgency. Teeming with chromatic energy, the work transforms a swamp into a site of ecstatic overgrowth and generative rhythm. Clusters of flora stretch, spiral, and unfurl with a vitality that borders on the erotic — their forms suggesting not just botanical life but a deeper, more primal cycle of creation.
Rendered in hundreds of translucent layers, the foliage appears to breathe, its structure somewhere between plant and pulse. A thick vine arches like a vertebrae of blooming cells across the scene, acting as both bridge and barrier, connective tissue between lush ground and spectral trees. What begins as landscape slips into the realm of internal terrain: part garden, part glandular system.
Romp in the Swamp suggests not a place one visits, but a state one inhabits — where beauty is wild, ungoverned, and inherently alive.
