Esty O - Strata Urbis

I am a contemporary abstract artist working intuitively with acrylics, layered textures, organic forms, and handwritten elements.

My work explores memory, heritage, nature, and the passage of time through atmospheric compositions that evolve organically during the creative process. Rather than following a fixed image, I allow each painting to develop through layers of colour, gesture, transparency, and texture, creating works that balance spontaneity with depth.

Inspired by landscapes, botanical forms, weathered surfaces, and fragments of personal and collective memory, my paintings invite viewers to form their own emotional connections and interpretations.

Each artwork is a unique original piece.

“Strata Urbis” — layers built one upon another, where warm orange and amber glow rise through teal and soft gold. First flowing washes, then delicate lines that trace the city’s quiet skeleton — charcoal defining, clarifying, giving shape to what emerged from colour. Dripped, softened, redrawn — this is the city not as it appears, but as it is formed: stroke by stroke, layer by layer, until the horizon breathes.
