Aurum is constructed using layered acrylics with gold elements integrated into a textured surface, for which I have used local sand and soil.

The composition balances matte and reflective areas, allowing the gold to emerge subtly rather than dominate the work. Texture is built and selectively refined, creating variation across the surface while maintaining overall restraint.

Aurum refers to the Latin word for gold, acknowledging both the material and its enduring value.
