At first glance, the figure of a woman emerges from beneath a curtain of elongated dark brushstrokes, which distort and partially conceal her facial identity. This fragmented layering technique blurs the line between representation and abstraction, evoking deep emotion and psychological undertones.
Executed in muted sepia and gray tones, the artwork channels an atmosphere of dreamlike silence and melancholic introspection. As the facial features dissolve under cascading forms, the viewer is invited to question memory, identity, and presence. Winter’s piece is rooted in a conceptual and figurative style, enhanced by its portrait theme and ambiguous emotional tone.
Sized at 80 × 60 × 2 cm, Katerina is ideally suited for gallery walls, private libraries, or introspective office environments—spaces where art is not merely decoration, but conversation. The emotional resonance of the piece, with its shadowy elegance and delicate tension, invites repeated reflection. Julia Winter masterfully combines collage and oil to produce a poetic dissonance that is both silent and powerful.
