Painted against a shifting ground of grey and white, this piece explores a more dramatic contrast — introducing bolder, more dynamic color into the poppies without abandoning the familiar language of The Savage Garden. There is electricity in this scene, a tension in the air. A charged stillness that comes before the sky breaks open.
This one also carries a subtle historical echo. I was only ten when the Gulf War began, and I remember watching the news anchor’s hands shake as she announced it live on T.V. That memory of trembling before impact — the quiet moment before everything changes — found its way into this piece.
Dance Before The Storm casts a new light on the series, while staying rooted in its core design: flowers as symbols of life, beauty, and fragility… even when the world above them is about to erupt.
