Throughout history and across cultures, mountains have been regarded as places of power and mysticism, home to deities, ascetic sages, and creatures of myth. Depicted as thresholds between the mortal world and the divine, their rugged peaks form the border where human ambition meets the unknown.

In so doing, he inverts our expectations of the exterior and the interior, and invites a conscious examination of interiority.
