Ancient and unhurried, the redwood has witnessed more than we’ll ever know. Loren places a solitary figure at its base – small, still, barely there. The shadows don’t threaten; they hold. An invitation to stand inside something far older than yourself, and simply enjoy.

The artist discusses how her figures reveal themselves to her while she works the canvas. Rather than alluding to specific characters the forms appear ambiguous and free of a fixed identity. ‘Figures coagulate as fragments of sculpture or restless spirits, momentarily visible through a fracture in the veil. An ethereal hand reaches up from moss-green depths, while the features of a face become apparent in the absent space Loren carves from her paint. Under the power of Loren’s spell, paint is alchemical, oscillating between liquid and solid, transparent, and opaque, invoking figure and form.
