A minimalist abstract landscape contrasting a luminous, expansive golden sky with heavily textured dark earth and a narrow, turbulent horizon.
The painting reflects a growing awareness of increasingly unsettled weather patterns and the vulnerability of the Irish landscape to environmental change. The familiar division between land and sky remains, but both feel altered: the ground appears dark, sparse and resistant, while the sky carries an uneasy intensity.
Rather than presenting a literal prediction, the work casts a glance towards what a once-familiar landscape might become if the balance between climate, land and weather continues to shift. There is beauty in the light, but also a sense of uncertainty beneath it.
