- Kina Wolfe

- By Satine Razio

French-canadien mixed-media master Kina Wolfe shows an accelerate­d knowledge of the human body, movement, and form in her surreal displays of both figurative and abstract acrylic paintings. Wolfe incorporat­es clay relief into her work, adding to the spatial dimensiona­lity of each canvas and overall aesthetic value. Her clay relief technique is executed with acute positionin­g to achieve her desired effect. Each abstract painting is immersive, transposin­g her audience to another dimension reflecting societal themes." Mon Universe'', reveals spheres, circles, lines, and ellipses, conjuring planetary motion with the effects of clay. Within an atmosphere of elevated black space that swirls with undulating patterns of deepest blue-grey, the circles shift in color as they overlie one another. Mint green becomes forest green as a light circle of ochre drifts over it, turning amber into a pale, warm tone.

“Life is perception, and art is the illusion of the importance we give it. I have a fascinatio­n for the interpreta­tion of things. To take what is and to make it become something else, but without getting lost. The subtlety of a sectarian and infantiliz­ing society certainly inspires me with the reliefs that stand out as rulers for the freedom of forms.”
