This painting shows a dreamy, empty landscape made of smooth, odd-shaped rocks in soft grays and blues. A pale sky fills most of the space, with a few small, round objects—like glass lenses—scattered near the top. The edges of the paper peek through in places, and the whole scene feels quiet and still. The artist used real glass lenses and cut-out paper to build this world, layering them like a collage. It’s not realistic—it’s more like a memory or a half-remembered place.
