Tillian – ‘Split Tree’, 2025. Acrylic on panel triptych, each panel 122×31 cm

‘Split Tree’ is a complex, deeply affecting work that situates landscape not as background, but as archetype, dream, and revelation. It fuses lyrical abstraction with mythic architecture, offering a rich visual lexicon of division and reunion, death and metamorphosis. Each panel unfolds a journey through elemental forces—fire, water, and growth—where vegetal forms twist and rupture like memory or myth. As in Jungian dream imagery, forms recur in variation—leaf becomes flame, flame becomes limb, limb becomes path. The absence of human figures is not a lack but an invocation: the viewers themselves become the pilgrim, traversing this mythic terrain. It is a painting that does not merely depict—but enacts—a psychic process of becoming.
