Kinga Makowka - Surrender

Surrender captures the relief of letting go.
Soft, misty neutrals and subtle textural shifts blend seamlessly across the canvas, creating an atmosphere of total, unforced calmness.
It is a study in yielding, releasing control, and allowing the dust to settle.

Designed to actively function within a room as a 'visual reset', this painting brings a grounding presence to a contemporary interior. It acts as a dedicated space on the wall that helps you to slow down, drop your shoulders, and simply breathe.

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. 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.
