Original artwork description
Pearls (2026) is a diptych by Inga Makarova that brings together two images connected by a shared motif. One panel presents a fragment of the female body with a pearl chain, while the other references a familiar portrait, creating a dialogue between the two.
The work explores how meaning shifts depending on context. The pearl can be seen as a symbol of refinement, but also as something that changes its character when placed in a different setting. The two panels do not fully resolve into a single narrative, leaving space for interpretation and allowing the viewer to define the relationship between them.
Executed in oil on canvas, the painting combines controlled technique with a clear conceptual structure. The diptych format emphasises both separation and connection, making the space between the images as important as the images themselves.
