Kinga Makowka - Secret Window

Questo lavoro fa parte della mia collezione 2026 di Unfiltered Studies; una serie di piccoli dipinti originali intimi realizzati tra corpi di lavoro più ampi.
Painted with instinct and immediacy, these pieces move away from the slower, structured layering of my primary collections. They hold the energy of a first thought: atmospheric, unguarded, and close to the pulse of the studio.
La serie esplora l'impatto emotivo della luce sulla mente; come la dolcezza, l'ombra e sottili cambiamenti di colore possano modificare come ci sentiamo in uno spazio.
A small-format original work, offering collectors an intimate entry point into my wider practice.

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.
