Kinga Makowka - Silence

Silence was inspired by a trip to Iceland. The cold days where everything felt slower and more spacious. The painting is not a direct landscape, but the impression that stayed after: wide light, clear air, and a sense of calm distance.
Soft blue‑green tones drift, creating an open, atmospheric composition.
The piece has a minimal, Nordic feel and brings a presence into any interior.

A contemporary abstract landscape made to be lived with; subtle, steady, and easy to place in modern spaces.

Kinga Makowka is a Polish-born artist based in Yorkshire, whose work explores the emotional terrain between memory and presence, stillness and sensation.

Working primarily on raw linen and cotton canvas, she builds her paintings in delicate layers; soft pigments, textures, and metallic details that seem to catch not just light, but time itself. Her pieces do not aim to capture a specific place, but rather a moment… a feeling.

Much of her work is rooted in personal reflection a search for meaning for pause. Kinga invites the viewer into a deeply human space: one of emotion, nostalgia, and connection.

Her practice often draws from her own life - family rituals, nature walks, the chaos of ADHD, and the peace she seeks through it all. It is a cartography of the internal world, mapping feeling through form.
