Series: A Garden for Those Without

Sophie Umana Krauss’ satin panels extend her exploration of nature into a more dynamic form. The lightness of the fabric allows wind and shifting light to animate the work, making the painted surfaces appear alive and ever-changing. This movement echoes the unpredictability of natural environments, transforming the panels into living fragments of landscape that invite viewers into a more immediate, sensory experience of nature.
