The Druidstone Hotel in Pembrokeshire, Wales is the subject of this work, seen here captured in a nocturnal tableau shimmering with quiet mystery. Seen from above, a citadel-like cluster of buildings glows like embers in the vast darkness, their windows radiating warmth and life against the enveloping blue of night. Strings of lights trace a festive geometry, suggesting gathering and community, while beyond the walls, emptiness and distance press in. The contrast between illumination and obscurity evokes both comfort and isolation: a meditation on human presence within the immensity of landscape. Through meticulous handling of tone and light, the artist transforms a familiar rural scene into something cinematic and dreamlike, where memory, solitude, and belonging are held in delicate equilibrium.
