"Power" (2021)Drawing by Marya

This work was done with a ballpoint pen on office paper A4 , which is glued with tape. I deliberately use the simplest and most non-artistic materials. I want to emphasize the lightness, simplicity, accessibility and illusion of contemporary art.
The composition is perceived as a collision between the organic and the constructive. Soft, twisted forms, built up from dense hatching, create a sense of fluidity, internal movement, almost physicality. They are intersected by rigid verticals and sharp wedges—like architectural interventions or incision marks. The grid holds everything in a coordinate system, as if the flow were confined within a strict structure. The work balances between spiral and incision, breath and restriction.
This work consists of individual sheets of A4 paper, which are glued together with adhesive tape. Along the gluing line, the picture can be bent and folded like an accordion, like a brochure. I am using this opportunity to mail this picture. When you receive this picture, it will be folded like a brochure A4. The picture must be expanded and placed in a graphic frame. This can be easily done by yourself or in any baguette studio.
