Floating Land,Series Painting

MAYA DUNSKY , is a multidisciplinary artist, a painter, Butoh dancer, and choreographer. Her paintings are mainly large in size and each series maintains a structured logic and characterization as the diverse series are joined one to another through repetitive motives. The content is weaved like from a bird eye view and the layers; transparent one on top of each other, form itself into harmonious mass characterized by inner motion. As a colorist her main inspiration is Nature phenomenon both for technical use of color and for understanding the line and the spot as integrative essences. In her art works there is a tension between "figurative"/"identified" to abstract and between endless charged spaces to defined matter. An abstract atmosphere is formed free of a "story", even in the presence of familiar objects. Maya creates and exhibit her art works in Israel & abroad. She facilitates a unique painting workshops called "Space- Color -Consciousness", a method she developed. Her art works are found in museums & privet collection in Israel, New-York, Tokyo, Paris, Basel and Berlin. She lived, studied and created in Japan for 6 years.
