Orna Feinstein

I am inspired and fascinated by the exterior and interior geometry of the organic — the concentric patterns of tree rings, and the cellular structure of a plant when observed under a microscope.

Experimenting with printmaking processes using non-traditional surfaces, such as fabric, plastics and Plexiglas allows my work to become less calculated and more intuitive, giving serendipity and chance take a role in the end result. I fuse the traditional medium of printmaking with a contemporary approach that transforms two-dimensional monoprints into intricately layered three-dimensional multimedia works. These artworks, both monochromatic and brilliantly hued, juxtapose the seen with the unseen, the external with the internal, and the real with the imagined.

Working with sculpture and printmaking led me to the creation of two and three dimensionalartworks, and installations, blurring the boundaries between them. Many of the artworks create eye deceiving forms, and optical movements, demonstrating changes in nature.
