The harmony and beauty that is found in the natural world is seemingly complicated to capture – sometimes that splendor only exists for a fragile moment. Even so, the traditional style of sumi-e painting has evoked such a soft and serene balance of nature for centuries. The thinly refined lines bleed into the motifs of sumi-e painting and show how so much can be said with so little. Shapes that suggest leaves and mountains blend to create a dream-like sensation. The Blæk Collection, by Yelena Rodina, reflects this equilibrium by encapsulating the natural world.
