Abstraction has many faces, refracted through the worldview of each artist – their inner world and sensitivity. One of the young artists represented by Gallery NOY suggests to us her perspective on abstraction – small formats, saturated and bright colors, plasticity and compositional solutions, which, complemented by the gentle and profound titles of the paintings, create a perfect whole.
