Iberia

Movement, memory, and the first hints of the sacred dance.

​

This gallery brings together a series of works inspired by Iberian horse culture, particularly Lusitano and Andalusian horses in working equitation, street processions, and formal displays. These were among the first pieces where rider and horse appeared not just as subjects, but as symbols.
 

There’s something in the discipline of working equitation...the precision, the trust, the harmony, that echoes the Sacred Masculine in its focused embodiment. There’s something in the dancer and the riders, in Cordoba, shadow and cobbled street, that begins to ask: what is it to move in union?

​

Most of the riders depicted are men, though not by conscious design. In equestrian sport, men and women ride equally  and that balance threads quietly through this collection.
 

Urban landscapes appear here too, horses weaving through modern streets, tradition held within contemporary rhythm. These are not romanticised scenes. They are grounded, embodied, and alive.

​

The Divine hadn’t yet entered consciously into the work.

But looking back, it was already riding in.
