The deceptive nature of reality

About the artwork

This print is part of my ongoing 'Promise' series, which combines lithographic transfer and monotype techniques. Reflections provide a playground for the imagination. They never reveal the truth, particularly when the water is in motion. I'm Kinga, a visual artist working in the printmaking and photography field. I'm Polish and recently relocated to Madrid from Brest, France. In recent years, water has become a central subject for me, as a matter of environmental concern and for its poetic character in the collective consciousness. Living by the Atlantic coast was my constant inspiration, though my interest in nature has now expanded to include palm trees and their turbulent history on the European continent. In my practice, I explore modern approaches to printmaking, with a focus on minimalising the environmental impact of traditional processes.
