Katja Oxman is a master printmaker who works in color aquatint, creating opulent still life images notable for their dense layering and rich content, pattern, and color. Oxman’s compositions pay homage to historical and contemporary art and to the natural world, featuring flowers, natural history specimens, and artwork postcards carefully arranged and set against Middle Eastern carpets. The still lifes function as deeply personal assemblages, merging autobiography with an elegant sense of graphic design.
