“Purification inside out” 

Lena Brazin's expressive figurative paintings are an invitation to explore another reality, mystical, and spiritual themes of human life. Her intuitive approach to painting with vivid colour and bold drawing roots the viewer in the present moment where multiple layers of paint, with different paces of application, reflect the complexity of the visible reality that we live in. 

"My work is a fusion of the two seemingly disconnected worlds of Seen and Unseen. I would like the viewers to think beyond their material existence and to consider metaphysical themes of human experience as much as the ordinary everyday moments. My paintings embody and depict other dimensions of the consciousness which I also refer to as  „Materialised Immateriality“.
