Maya Adar Walling | Amalgamation, 2024
Collagraph
Media Dimensions: 33 x 28.5 cm
Image Dimensions: 24 x 17 cm
Edition of 3
Framed only
Maya Adar Walling’s work is concerned with the ephemeral nature of the physical world. She employs experimental print techniques and traditional etching, with particular interest in the textural qualities of the medium, especially those of collagraphy. Damaged plates and discarded materials, which themselves already show signs of wear and damage, often serve as the base onto which she crafts dramatic and somber images exploring themes of mortality, time and the human body. Her artistic research explores the painful contradiction between the ideal purity of the natural form and its transformation through material corruption into a new unknowable element, who’s meaning lies beyond the mind. In her work the physical boundaries of shapes blur and fade as they interact with light and tone to build a new essence, allowing for a perception that is, in a way, spiritual. Visual and tactile decay of matter sublimate to express the eternity of the mind. She graduated from Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design, Jerusalem, Israel and the Accademia di Belle Arti, Bologna, Italy.
