MARINA ROLFE studied painting from the age of six in Moscow, which explains her impressive technique foundation. Rolfe draws from the vast realm of landscapes, where organic shapes and instinctive brushwork merge to form dreamy, abstract compositions.
”What emerges across Rolfe’s paintings is a sustained engagement with the limits of intervention. The paintings are not sites of unrestricted expression, but of constraint—where each decision carries the potential to both extend and destabilise the work. Holding, in this context, is not a passive state. It is an active maintenance of relations: between colours that do not fully resolve, between marks that risk excess, between forms as they emerge and their possible collapse.” - excerpt from The Edge of Holding exhibition essay by Chelsea Hopper.
