Elephant Eye
9×12 inch oil painting on Panel
An elephant-headed figure rolls forward on a skateboard through a soft pink, dreamlike space, caught mid-motion in a world untethered from ordinary rules. Dressed in everyday clothing, the figure feels grounded and familiar, which only heightens the strangeness of what it carries. In its hands rests a disembodied human eyeball, rendered with care and intention, its unblinking stare becoming the quiet center of the composition.
From the elephant’s raised trunk, a pale snake emerges, mouth open as if calling out or reacting to the eye below. The pairing feels deliberate and symbolic: sight and instinct, awareness and appetite, observation and response. Around the figure, coins, shapes, and geometric blocks drift and topple, while root-like growths crawl from rigid structures in the background, suggesting a landscape where systems erode and organic forces reclaim space.
The painting balances humor with unease, using playful motion to frame deeper questions about perception, attention, and what it means to truly see while moving through an unstable world.
