The Journey
On the journey from Photo Realism to Abstraction, I have traveled a road with many turns and stops along the way—always to find myself back on the path with new vision and a keen sense of forward movement. —Ilona Sochynsky
FROM HYPER REALISM
TO
ABSTRACTION
My transmutation from hyper realism to abstraction began as an investment in close study of image, surface, light. Along the way I traveled through periods of fragmentation, surrealism, and the creation of dreamlike states through layering of images, textures, and objects that seem to be unrelated, yet communicate volumes.
Abstraction became my final destination.
