Sarah Księska

Sarah Księska’s surreal figurative paintings delve into themes of identity, perception, and the subconscious. Working primarily on aluminum panels, she begins her creative process by combining images into digital collages on a tablet, which she then translates into oil and marble dust paintings. This method allows her to explore the interplay between the digital and physical realms, creating works that challenge the boundaries between reality and imagination. Her paintings often depict otherworldly scenes, drawing inspiration from free associations and dreams.
