Series Description: The Strength of Contrasts

This series by Annie explores the dynamic relationship between water and stone, capturing her fascination with the fluidity of the sea and the solid strength of rocks. Through these studies, Annie examines the duality and opposition within nature: the relentless movement of water meeting the unyielding presence of stone. Each piece celebrates the natural tension and harmony that arise from these contrasting elements, where waves crash and recede against the timeless rock, embodying a conversation between the transient and the eternal. In this exploration, Annie invites viewers to witness the beauty in opposites, where softness meets hardness, and light interacts with shadows, revealing the hidden textures and stories etched by time.
