PETRA EPERJESI

In my work, I’m chasing simplicity, playfulness, and connection with the land. Simplicity often feels elusive as I manipulate the geometries of fields and barns and play with layers and layers of colours in the fields, puzzle-piecing the composition together. Ultimately, I hope viewers feel simultaneously drawn in by the familiar, simple shapes, and playful colours, and thrown off, sensing the stories hiding in old barns and buried in layers of dirt. My paintings are asking “Who was here?” so we can’t forget.
