CHAOS
From the Calm within Chaos trilogy · Svalbard
A bearded seal rests on broken ice. Behind it, a glacier wall releases tons of ice into the water. The collision is violent, immediate, immense.
The seal does not move.
Two truths share the same frame — overwhelming force and complete stillness, neither displacing the other. The image asks what it feels like when both are true at once, and offers no answer.
Single capture from a Zodiac. No composite.

Same print, mounted on 3 mm Alu-Dibond, set into a 25 mm black anodized aluminum frame with a 4 mm shadow gap — the work appears to float within its frame.
Each acquisition includes a Hahnemühle Certificate of Authenticity, hand-signed by the artist. The certificate carries one hologram of a serialized dual-hologram pair; the matching hologram is affixed to the reverse of the work — physically linking the piece to its provenance.
