A series of paintings by Aleksandra Niemczyk depicting the co-dependence of colours and their powerful vibrations.

Each work deconstructs a broad landscape into geometric forms and vibrant colour palettes, transcending narrative to embrace abstraction while continuously testing the interplay and tension of colours in an infinite array of combinations.

On some canvases, the landscape remains present through hints of familiar forms, evoking the early watercolours of Paul Klee. In others, the narrative breaks down into pure abstraction based on simple geometric forms and complex colour compilations, allowing the unrefined emotionality of colour to resonate without distraction.

Aleksandra Niemczyk’s ongoing exploration delves beyond the visible spectrum and into the unseen energies that bind these colours together, their silent conversations forming the work's very essence.

“Exploring the interplay of textures in my paintings, I employ layers of cotton, silk, and canvas as an under layer,” explains Niemczyk, “creating a textile-like foundation that enriches the surface with a tactile dimension, allowing the canvases to resonate on both tactile and visual planes.”
