See the vast field,
its shield of command,
the clearing that flanks
a green path for ghosts.
Charcoal
Methods: dry on wet
Inspiration: This charcoal drawing was made to accompany a short poem I wrote about a large swathe of tropical forest cleared by Singapore's government which, faced by a public outcry, blamed it on the contractor. The clearing ignited public anger because Singaporeans started to cherish our forests more during the restrictions of COVID.
