Sex On The Beach II

A closer look at the work

A solitary palm rises above dark rocks on a narrow coast. Blue water lies behind it beneath an extensive sky. The steep vertical frame stacks stone, plant, sea and air rather than following the shoreline. Fanned leaves interrupt this calm sequence with an outward-reaching movement.

The title raises expectations that the visible subject does not clearly confirm. The photograph first offers an unoccupied fragment, leaving the gap between name and view unresolved. Isolation gives the palm a bodily presence while keeping it tied to rock and water. A tight crop produces proximity to an edge, with openness continuing above in the sky.

Personal consultation

The work, the space, the presentation.

What interests you about this work? I take time for your questions, its origins and its place in a collection. Together, we explore differences between works and their relationship with space, light and architecture.

Size, selected materials and bespoke framing are carefully coordinated. The precise presentation develops through our conversation.

A photograph of the intended space can help us consider scale and placement.
