Faces in Counterpoint
Two stylized female faces emerge from interlocking fields of deep navy and warm white, their flowing hair creating a dense rhythm of curved, tapering shapes. Precisely cut and layered paper produces crisp contours with subtle seams across the surface. The close pairing and direct gazes give the collage a bold, enigmatic presence suited to a living room, office, or dining area.
Maya Golk Apter
My work unfolds in the elusive space between memory and fiction, between personal experience and family or collective myths. The geographical and emotional starting point of my art is rooted in La Peña Lara—a secluded island on the Río Capitán in the Tigre Delta, Argentina. It is the place where I grew up, and which, over the years, has transformed from a tangible landscape into an internal, mythical, charged, and persistent one. In recent years, I have focused on the medium of paper cutting, working in a free, manual, and intuitive manner.
