Connection I. 2004
Oil, canvas. 150 x 120 cm (not framed)
An extremely sensitive moment in the relationship between two people is framed. Mara Koppel-Ljutjuk values closeness and noticing with this painting. The burning red in the background creates good tension, but everything else could be called a realistic or photographic depiction.
Mara Koppel-Ljutjuk comes from a family of artists and, more than that, a dynasty. The dynasty of artists that started with Evald Okas continues in the work of the younger generation of painters, creating continuity and duration.
