"Salt and Silence" is an evocative, mixed-media artwork inspired by the artist’s intimate experiences on a secluded, rocky beach—a personal haven for solace and reflection.

This piece captures the visceral connection to the sea, where the salt-laden air tingles on the skin and the soundscape is dominated by the powerful, crashing waves. It freezes a fleeting, ethereal moment just before a southern storm rolls in, casting a haunting calm across the water and shoreline. The mist settles, shrouding the scene in a dreamlike stillness, as if time pauses for a breath before nature’s raw energy is unleashed.

The artwork, crafted with layers of textured acrylics and meticulously sealed for longevity, weighs around 2 kg and is set on a striking 60cm circular wooden panel, ready for hanging.

Every detail, from the sweeping brushstrokes to the tonal layers, contributes to a richly moody atmosphere, evoking the ocean's force and mystery on the verge of a storm. This piece offers viewers a window into a powerful, atmospheric seascape—a place of "salt and silence."

This piece was created by Hayley Weston - A nature inspired NZ Artist.
