The cutting saga
The birth of this collection got its inspiration from Italy. The story is that the artist was sitting under a tree in a very large and spacious park reserve on a sunny afternoon in fall. She was reading a book but could not concentrate because she was distracted by the falling leaves from trees around her .
She suddenly got an idea to cut up her paintings in particular collections and saw the pieces come together in her mind. She went home to her studio and did exactly that!
She now tells the story of the whispers of an old tree spirit that inspired these new collections. The new paintings come from three collections and include the sunset, figure and yoga collections that were cut into pieces to recreate collages with layered pieces.
