‘This piece came about as automatic drawing. Many of the rites and rituals that I depict occur in forest settings, this one being in a clearing. There is a tension in the space, in the bodies, as they rise to the call of the tree. Its eyes are glazed over in concentration and the air is charged with the power that the ancient forest wields. Perhaps this scene has been performed hundreds of times over the years; perhaps this is its first and only iteration. One figure takes the form of a blushing demon, while the other masks their face from what may appear. Both offer their bodies as the ritual begins.’ -Max
