Inspiration: “Ledge of the World”

There are few places on earth where you feel at the edge of the world; Yosemite National Park is one of these. Craggy cliffs climb up towards a brilliant pink and red sky, rising and falling, phoenix-like, sometimes painted in beautiful golden shades, and other times steeped in sleepy shadows. Here, patterns form patiently over time, the composition of nature’s veins aesthetically perfect and yet completely unintentional.

​

We set out to recreate the depth of shade and radiant light in Phoenix Sky’s subtle veins of grey and gold, set against a luminous white backdrop. A translucent base and organic pattern of flowing veins adds dimension, a nod to Yosemite’s cloud steeped peaks and deep sweeping valleys; mimicking the random aesthetic of nature’s patterns.
