Untitled (Blue) Darina Karpov
Darina’s work is characterised by meticulous technique and her treatment of subjects that seem to transform and dissolve. She takes the idea of material – its texture, decay and disintegration – as the basis of this work. She spreads crystalline structures deliberately across the surface of the piece, inviting us to look closer at their detail. The use of bold colour and striking contrast provide an intensity that enhances Darina’s careful technique and minute detail.
