Mercury Love (Interrupted Series, 2017) transports the viewer into an alternate dimension where the body exists in its most natural and sensual state. Sourced from vintage Playboy imagery and recontextualized through hand-cut collage, the figure becomes a celestial presence—golden, statuesque, and suspended between vulnerability and power.
Set against a cosmic backdrop, the reclining nude merges with vibrant florals, a weathered wooden chair, and mythic metallic forms. These elements evoke themes of desire, transformation, and the fluid nature of identity. The composition draws from the mythology of Mercury—messenger, lover, shape-shifter—suggesting a space where sensuality, nature, and cosmic energy intersect.
Visually lush and emotionally charged, Mercury Love invites contemplation on the body as both subject and symbol, reclaiming its context and presenting it within a universe shaped by imagination rather than expectation.

A mixed-media collage available only in digital form for now. Once I find another image of Mercury, I plan to create an oil painting of it, so watch my socials for updates!
