Diving Deep is a vertical sculptural wall piece created on reclaimed cypress wood. This one-of-a-kind work explores layered movement, memory, and depth through rich acrylics, expressive pastel, and ink, all sealed under a glossy coat of resin. The natural grain of the wood becomes part of the composition, echoing themes of resilience and renewal. Mounted on a custom acrylic cleat, the piece floats off the wall by two inches, casting subtle shadows that shift with the light.

Christi Meril’s work often merges nature, texture, and modern form—and this piece is no exception. Inspired by the emotional undercurrents we often suppress or submerge, Diving Deep invites the viewer to pause and consider what lies beneath the surface. From the tactile gestures to the high-gloss finish, this piece is both a visual and emotional immersion.
