Created during Rainey King’s residency in Medellín, Colombia, Mountain Man merges mapping systems, environmental memory, graffiti language, and symbolic abstraction into a layered visual landscape.
The work reflects movement through unfamiliar terrain — emotionally, physically, and spiritually — while introducing recurring motifs connected to WARD, a symbolic figure rooted in inheritance, resilience, and survival.
Part field note, part emotional cartography, the work exists between painting, memory archive, and landscape intervention.
