Artist’s Book by Aga Kubish, 2025
A unique artist’s book in a concertina (leporello) format, combining drawing, monotype, and watercolour.
Fracture explores the idea of cracks – both visible and hidden – that shape the structure of matter and human experience. Abstract forms in shades of black, brown, and white create a dynamic rhythm, where gesture, texture, and light weave into an organic whole.
Each page is an integral part of the composition, yet only when fully unfolded does the work reveal a pulsating, almost topographical landscape. Its folded and expanded structure allows the book to be viewed both as a sculptural object and as a linear visual narrative.
