WATERCOLOUR PAINTING ON CANVAS with mirror plates MATERIALS: Watercolours and bronze powder pigment on watercolour canvas SIZE: 60 x 70 x 4 cm WEIGHT: 1,5 kg YEAR: 2021 During my own research on pigments, I came across the theory that ancient Romans used to make the pigment “verdigris” by soaking bronze plates in wine, obtaining the characteristic deep green patina from the oxidised bronze. Inspired by this story, I eventually combined these historically related materials onto a canvas: several tones of self-made paint are applied together with a traditional sculptural material - bronze. The painting’s deep flowing texture and swathes of colours, blur the boundaries between 2D and 3D forms, representing "the surface corrosion of an emotional facade". This two-tone palette sculptural painting intends to draw a parallel between the ever-changing verdigris colour and the feeling of nostalgia. Like patina forming over bronze as metal's natural protective layer, similarly, nostalgia preserves memories into present time.

Ekaterina Adelskaya (b. 1988, Moscow) is a Russian artist with Ukrainian roots, living and working in London. Her artistic focus is in sculptures and watercolours with a strong emphasis on exploring materiality, destruction and transformative processes. Since 2015, Ekaterina has exhibited her works in various prestigious venues, including The Royal Academy of Arts in London, The Royal West of England Academy in Bristol, London Art Biennale, CICA Museum, Moscow Biennale of Contemporary Art. Her works are held in private collections in the UK, Italy, and Russia. Notably, in 2020, her object 'Blurring' was included in CICA Museum's permanent collection, while 'Letting Go' won the "Watercolour 2nd Prize" at the 168th Annual Exhibition of the Royal West of England Academy. "In my practice, I frequently incorporate textiles, minerals/pigments and found objects, subjecting them to various forms of deterioration and destruction. The method of deconstruction plays a significant role as it often leads to the creation of something new, opening doors to uncharted territories in my research and experimentation. My investigation of materiality serves as a lens through which I decipher the intricacies of our world, enabling me to discover the complexities of human existence and its impact on the environment, particularly in the context of the current climate emergency. By embracing the transformative nature of materials I reflect on the impermanence, imperfection and fragility of life. I believe that the transformation of matter is an integral part of our existence — it is life itself. We constantly adapt, thrive and decay in a continuous flow of change."
