Artwork description:
The multicolored background of the print was made using the dry needle technique and also through an experimental layering of oil stains. The drawing was then applied by screen printing. According to the artist, the color combination of navy blue and soft pink reflects the contrasting personality of the woman. This is a contemporary search for the genesis of the archetype of romantic femininity. Framed image.
