With a Picture

Reti Saks’s work is profoundly captivating. If her visual language were to be summed up succinctly, it might be described as an elegy for sad girls. The characters in her pieces exude an ethereal quality, marked by an air of detachment. The otherworldliness present in her work creates the impression that these figures inhabit a parallel realm, where logic and physical constraints have dissolved. Her figures seem to float within a barely discernible space – a world sculpted by light and shadow, evoking a fairytale-like ambiance, yet permeated by a quiet melancholy. Saks’s art invites viewers to step into a delicate realm where emotions are elusive and weightless, and nothing is certain.
