Description:
Rooted in the raw landscapes of New Mexico, Spirit Head of Fabled Horse embodies the intersection of myth, nature, and memory. Captured on analogue film at Georgia O’Keeffe’s farm, the image reveals the root of a fallen tree—its form remarkably resembling a horse’s head. Standing in the desert sand, it appears as both guardian and ghost, an echo of untold stories carried by the wind.
The work draws upon the timeless energy of the land once wandered by O’Keeffe, where form and spirit converge in quiet dialogue. The play of light across the contours of the weathered wood transforms it into a sculptural presence—a poetic meditation on endurance, transformation, and the passage of time.
For me, this piece is a tribute to the fabled creatures of the American West and the silent strength they embody—a reflection on impermanence, resilience, and the haunting beauty of the desert landscape.
