Female deities intertwine with nature in Mary Maka’s digital illustrations. Depicting the deep connection between people and the surroundings, the artist (beforehand) questions the prospect of sustaining a harmonious bond with different dwelling creatures. Although holistic coexistence pervaded mythological narratives, can that sort of kinship nonetheless exist at this time?
Concurrently emanating an aura of gentleness and energy, every determine virtually fully melds into the luxurious environments they discover themselves in. “By choosing women to embody these deities, the illustrations celebrate feminine strength and vulnerability, depicting women as an integral part of the forces of the natural world,” says Maka.
The artist’s first textile works can be on view in Belgrade this August, so keep up to date by her Behance and Instagram.
