Trevor May utilizes a graphic design approach to deconstruct the natural world into its most essential, angular components. In Shattered Waves, the fluid unpredictability of the ocean is reimagined through a vibrant color palette and sharp, geometric shapes that suggest both the weight of the water and the spray of the foam. The use of vector art allows for a crispness that highlights the structural anatomy of the wave, turning a fleeting moment of weather into a permanent study of form.

The composition relies on dynamic interactions between light and shadow, rendered through colorful triangle art that creates a sense of depth and momentum. By blending a vintage aesthetic with a bold, graphic sensibility, May invites a unique sensory movement experience where the viewer can almost feel the spray. The deliberate composition suggests a balance between the permanence of the earth and the fleeting energy of the sea.
