Gorecki

Gorecki represents a culmination of emotions the artist experienced over a period of months, enduring the isolation of the pandemic. Sinking into a deeply sad and confined mental space, left the artist feeling confused and lacking direction. Unsure of what direction to follow, grieving the loss of memories and experiences, she found her icon. This piece, her face, offered the artist a respite from the noise, the confusion and the helplessness around her. This gentle, sad, yet centred muse brought a sense of peace in a world of madness.  She is a heroic muse, who provided a source of strength, leading you into a space of innocence and playfulness. The artist Kirsten is strongly influenced by music and during her hours drawing this muse, she listened to two separate artists, from the Polish composer, Gorecki and following this named her muse Gorecki.
