About the Artwork

This artwork explores the relationship between human touch and natural forms through an extended painting that merges traditional materials with elements from the forest. Inspired by the textures and patterns of birch bark - combination of paper- thin layers in some areas, and rugged grooves in others.

It combines gestural oil paint, frottage technique, and found tree branches, which physically extend beyond the canvas. The
irregular wooden shapes attached to the edges blur the boundary between painting and object. By bringing together natural
materials and human-made marks, the work reflects on a meeting point between organic marks and artistic gesture.
