Lane Splitting captures the visual instability of a world in transit, using the palm tree- a ubiquitous symbol of leisure and landscape- as its site of rupture. This painting presents two overlapping iterations of a palm tree to mimic the high-velocity perspective of a passenger in motion. The rhythmic, vertical striations break the subject into a state of blurred vibration, identifying the "Snap" as a result of visual and physical velocity. The work grounds the weightless speed of contemporary life into a dense, sedimentary record, exposing the mechanical limits of perception when subjected to the friction of the "slow burn."
