"Erosion 13," in Olsen-Dunn's smallest format, explores a vision of nature gradually dissolving into an ethereal state. With a soft peach sky and vibrant blue water, the scene feels like a memory slipping away, where cliffs and trees disintegrate into the surroundings, leaving only rocks as suspended relics. This piece embodies Olsen-Dunn's commentary on environmental fragility - an apocalyptic beauty that suggests a future where the familiar landscape exists only as traces, fading into color and light.
