Katya Stavisky Jackson is a Los Angeles-based artist specializing in printmaking, painting, and traditional hand-crafts. Her work often explores themes of introspection, nature, and the tension between independence and connection.
Printmaking is a slow accumulation—five layers, ten, twenty—each one a decision about color, pressure, registration. The image I'm chasing exists somewhere in that repetition, revealed only through the act of returning. It's how memory works too: we touch our recollections again and again until we've worn them smooth, until the feeling matters more than the facts.
I'm interested in desire that lives in ordinary things. The heat of August fruit. The particular ache of wanting. Light at a specific hour. My prints try to hold these—not illustrate them, but press them into paper with enough force that they leave a mark.
The work comes from my hands. Carving, inking, wiping, pulling. I like that printmaking resists total control, that each impression surprises me even when I think I know what I'm making. I also like that each piece is an original but not singular—touched by my hand but made to be shared.
