Skull and Nature in pink

In Skull and Nature in Pink, Greg Petan juxtaposes the timeless symbol of the skull with the vibrancy of living flora and fauna, set against a palette dominated by atmospheric pinks. This contrast between mortality and life illuminates the delicate balance between the ephemeral and the eternal, with each element representing a different facet of the natural cycle. The skull, rendered in muted tones, evokes stillness and contemplation, while the vivid flora and fauna surrounding it suggest resilience and renewal. Through this interplay, Petan invites viewers to reflect on themes of transience and rebirth, capturing the beauty of life’s cycle as it moves between existence and decay, serenity and vitality, all bathed in the gentle warmth of pink light.
