Art Direction's Advice
Art Gallery Third Millennium
the artist turns her attention to naturalism and pop art. Then she fills painting with contents and references to the fundamental mankind's conquests: physical, technology and generally the sciences.
Universal visions coexist into these canvas and they seem to be shot by microscope. The Karin Abati's imagery goes from art to every other method of knowledge of reality. Art is infact the first way to explore the world and the first relation between the world and the conscience.
The colors are used with freshness and elegance. Very impressive the chiaroscuro and the shades.
