Fragments of a Lost Future

Fragments of a Lost Future imagines a world in which environmental destruction has reduced encounters with wildlife to artificial displays. A crystalline fish becomes a fragile remnant of nature, visible behind a barrier but no longer part of a living ecosystem. Glass-like textures painted in acrylic are combined with real glass shards attached to the wood panel, bringing together an illusion of transparency and physical fragments. The contrast between the fish’s beauty and its vulnerability invites reflection on what may be lost if preservation comes too late.
