Ewelina Bocheńska — "Gypsy Sun, Desert Moon"

Sean Horton is pleased to present Ewelina Bocheńska's solo exhibition of new paintings entitled "Gypsy Sun, Desert Moon."

"My paintings are definitely more often questions than answers, where the emphasis is more on not knowing than knowing. I am more interested in questions than answers, because questions create an open space / open window, an answer is like a closed door. My most favorite question is Heidegger’s question: ‘Why is there something rather than nothing?’. I am intrigued by the space between representation and abstraction, that liminal space of things coming in and out of existence. It is important to me that the aspects of my paintings are on the verge of becoming and/or disappearing. Not all of them but most of them."
