Elias Thorne

Black is the beginning and the end; between them is the fingerprint of the soul.

Elias Thorne's work is a meditation on tactility and depth. Using only black oil pigments, charcoal, and various minerals, he layers rough, heavy impasto to create sculptured textures. These black landscapes are not empty but capture the subtle interaction of light on rough surfaces, inviting the viewer to find structure and form within the shadow.
