Laying Down With a Smile and Watching The Sky II
Collage
Paper collage on paper
This collection celebrates the pure, unfiltered joy of childlike wonder. Each piece bursts with vibrant colors and playful forms, evoking a sense of innocence and delight. Dedicated to the artist’s 5-year-old niece, Zoria, this series aims to elicit smiles and laughter, offering viewers a momentary escape into a world of imagination and joy.
As the sun sets and the moon rises, stars, birds, and other whimsical creatures emerge — strange, sometimes funny, and always kind and tender. They seem to share OVSKA’s longing to hold onto the magic of childhood and memories of those carefree times.
Creating this collection has sparked something within the artist that’s hard to explain, both liberating her to play and explore, and encouraging her to embrace her creativity without fear and to delve deep into the imagination.

“By appreciating the ephemeral moments from the past I pieced together paper cuttings which already carry a history and connected those fragments into a whole.”
-OVSKA
About the Artist
OVSKA
Berlin-based Polish artist OVSKA combines paper cuts of different ages, shapes, and structures including recycled materials to create unique abstract compositions. By memorizing excitement, closeness, touch and scents she chooses those fragile scraps of material reality and connects them with appreciation until the universal meaning suddenly emerges from the flat surface.
