Carina P. - "Inner Sea"

“Inner Sea” evokes a submerged landscape suspended between light and depth. The upper field, soft and atmospheric, suggests shifting currents or distant reflections, while the lower expanse of deep blue anchors the composition in quiet intensity.
Subtle linear gestures move across the surface like traces of unseen trajectories, hinting at inner navigation rather than physical geography. The painting unfolds as an emotional seascape — not a literal ocean, but a space of introspection and internal movement.
Layered acrylic textures create variations in transparency and density, allowing light to interact with the surface in nuanced ways. The contrast between luminous upper tones and the profound blue below generates a sense of immersion, as if the viewer were suspended between surface and depth.
“Inner Sea” invites contemplation — a meditation on silence, memory, and the vast interior spaces we carry within.

About Carina P. (b. 1981):
Carina P. is a contemporary abstract artist whose work explores the invisible landscapes of inner states. Born in 1981, she develops a visual language rooted in emotional perception rather than representation.
Her paintings emerge from introspection — from moments of tension, stillness, uncertainty, and transformation. Through layered textures, shifting tonal contrasts, and controlled gestural movement, she constructs spaces that feel both expansive and intimate. Horizons appear and dissolve; depth becomes psychological rather than geographical. Working primarily in acrylic, Carina builds her surfaces through accumulation and subtraction, allowing instinct and structure to coexist. The dialogue between light and density, silence and movement, reflects the complexity of internal experience.
Rather than depicting external reality, her work invites viewers to confront their own inner seas — spaces of memory, vulnerability, and quiet strength.
Her practice situates itself within contemporary abstract modern art, where emotion becomes architecture and painting becomes a field of awareness.
