Nord Kudu (From the North)

from $145.00

The name alone carries weather. Nord Kudu: from the north, arriving with the cold still on it.

The hull reads in blocks of rust and blue, worn and purposeful, rising out of water that moves in long, painterly strokes beneath it. Behind the ship, a snow-covered mountain range recedes into a pale sky, soft and cold, the kind of light that belongs to early morning or late season. The "Safety First" lettering on the bridge is the only text, a small human detail on something otherwise vast.

This is a portrait. Not of a vessel in motion, but of one at rest in the frame, centred, still, carrying the weight of distance without revealing where it has been.

Part of the Homeward series, eight head-on portraits of the cargo ships woven into Vancouver's harbour, each paired with the landscapes they pass through on their journey.

Available in Two Formats

Resin Wood Panel Each resin piece is hand-poured over an archival print mounted on a natural wood cradle. The high-gloss finish deepens colour, shifts with the light, and gives the work a luminous, almost three-dimensional presence. Non-toxic and VOC-free. Made on demand, finished by hand. Allow approximately one week for completion and shipping.

Canvas Print Each canvas print is produced using lightfast inks on museum-grade canvas, stretched on 1.5" bars and ready to hang. Colour-corrected to remain true to the original painting. Ships within five to seven business days.
