Striped Gaze -Papercuts
A stylized female portrait emerges through sharply cut black and white shapes, with flowing striped forms building the hair, shoulder, and floral elements. The paper collage relies on crisp edges and strong positive-negative contrast to construct the face with graphic clarity. The result is poised and theatrical, with a contemporary presence that reads beautifully from across a room.
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 Peรฑa Laraโa secluded island on the Rรญo Capitรกn 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.
