The skies behind ?Winter? are those of dusk on a winter?s eve. The skies behind the ?Summer/Fall? panel are brilliant sunset hues. The skies behind the ?Spring/Summer? panel are dawn pale with wispy clouds catching the early light. The landscapes are hybrid images, composited by the artist, of many moments throughout the season. Bare limbs give way to flowering trees and pale leaves become the lush greens of summer. Then we witness the turning of the foliage as fall arrives, shifting from yellows to reds and finally the cool blues and grays of winter. All the images have been woven together and then crystalized so that small shapes of crisp colour vibrate. Laid over this hybrid image of landscape through time is a veil of fritted glass with images of leaves and branches as if we are looking through them. There are also reflections of the sky and nearby buildings and these reveal or obscure the images of the forest or the sky to create a very complex and richly layered visual experience. Through these reflections on the glass panels, this intricate and unique artwork blends the urban setting of the shopping centre with the natural environment and the brain is stimulated in ways that trigger a rich and complex series of associations.
