DescriptionThispared back landscape with high horizon line gives a sense of calm and openness yet it is also unsettling. perhaps pointing to trouble looming. The sublte colour palette of yellow, grey and white creates a sense of melancholy. The scene reflects themese that Cummins often addresses in her work: retreat and isolation
