Artist about this artwork
Throughout history, land has held paramount significance. Wars have been waged, blood spilled, and intricate plots are woven, all in pursuit of this precious resource. In our contemporary era, the allure of land is most compelling when it's held in private ownership.
The earth has an innate ability to nourish its possessor, whether that's through literal sustenance harvested from a personal plot of six acres, or through the financial gains of land resale. It serves as a source of employment or yields valuable resources. To lay claim to even a modest parcel of land under one's ownership is akin to possessing a treasure trove of good fortune. It is a connection to the very roots of our existence, a tangible tie to the earth that cradles us. In essence, it grants a profound sense of stewardship over a piece of the world itself. This visceral link to the land transcends the mundane and ventures into the realm of the sublime, reminding us that we are custodians of a legacy that extends far beyond our own lifetimes.
