Within the mystical embrace of "The Crossing" collection lies "The Gathering Mist," an image that encapsulates the transcendental moments of human experience. Here, a group of individuals, draped in ethereal white fabrics, stand amidst a forest cloaked in fog. The mist envelops the scene, blurring the boundaries between the earthly and the otherworldly, suggesting a ritualistic gathering at the cusp of a significant passage. The figures are poised as if caught between two realms, the visible and the invisible, with their attention directed towards the unseen or inward in contemplation. This compelling tableau invites viewers to reflect on the thresholds we encounter—the veiled beginnings and endings that mark our journeys through life. The image serves as a visual metaphor for "The Crossing," capturing the solemn beauty of shared human rites and the poignant mystery of transitions.
