Heart 4 By Hannah Adamaszek

Hannah Adamaszek brings a fresh and thoughtful angle to the male dominated world of contemporary street art. An arena that many female artists shy away from, Adamaszek embraces the spray-can aesthetic on her own terms, producing nuanced and abstract portraits of the feminine form. Opting for a softer palette, while maintaining all of the dynamism and energy of street-art, Adamaszek's prints are bold, haunting and heavy with expressive depth. 'Heart 4' depicts a kneeling woman, her face obscured as she clutches a red love-heart in front of it. Adamaszek presents the beauty of the female form in dripping lines of black paint, while creating soft washes of colour around the muse, for a beautiful blend of figurative and abstracted styles.
