The Synthesis of Complements: Natalia Wrobel

The World is a Waterfall by Natalia Wrobel

In every life and any artist can tell you, in every work of art is filled with highs and lows.  We struggle through the valleys and rejoice on the mountaintops.  The work of New England artist Natalia Wrobel expresses those polarities in paint.

Wrobel’s work intuitively explores the push and pull of creating something from nothing.  The layering of color, line, and shape create swirls of movement and texture while leaving areas of glowing and restful light.

In each piece, we can almost see the search, the struggle between letting go and holding on, knowing when to keep moving forward and when to stop in your tracks.

      Aren’t they? I would love to see them in person, to really drink in all the painty texture.
