Serengeti distills the vastness of the African landscape into a refined, luminous meditation on space, form, and memory. Tall, elegant tree forms rise against an expansive field of gold leaf, their dark silhouettes delicately rendered with ink-like precision. The composition feels both grounded and timeless, evoking a place that exists as much in memory as in geography.
 
The restrained palette allows the gold surface to dominate, transforming the background into a living sky—one that shifts and glows with the movement of light throughout the day. Subtle tonal variations and soft horizons anchor the work, while the elongated trees introduce a sense of quiet strength and endurance.
 
Minimal yet richly layered, Serengeti exemplifies the artist’s ability to balance simplicity with emotional depth, offering viewers a sense of calm, openness, and reverence for the natural world.
