With Translucent II, Karen van de Vliet combines soft areas of colour with sharp vertical lines and translucent layers. Shades of pale blue, pink, black and white create a composition that feels both energetic and calm. The surface reveals traces of the making process, allowing material and colour to remain visible beneath the upper layers. The work brings a sense of lightness and depth to a space and interacts subtly with natural daylight.

In Translucent I, Karen van de Vliet explores the relationship between transparency, colour and material. Layers of transparant materials and paint overlap and partially conceal one another, creating a composition that shifts with the changing light. Soft blue tones, bright yellow accents and areas of white and black give the work a sense of balance while preserving its spontaneous character. The sculptural surface brings depth to the piece, making it equally suited to contemporary interiors and carefully assembled gallery walls.

In the Bubblegum series, Karen van de Vliet explores the physical boundaries of painting. Her work moves beyond the flat surface, developing into a relief-like terrain where thick paint accumulates and expands into an almost sculptural form.
Working with a dense and viscous medium, she builds layered structures that suggest organic formations or microscopic landscapes. The compositions remain abstract, yet distinctly physical: the gesture is embedded in the surface, and movement and pressure remain visible.
Colour plays a defining role in this series. In Bubblegum, Van de Vliet uses bold and luminous tones that contrast with the weight and density of the material. This tension between playful colour and physical intensity gives the work its character.
These paintings approach abstraction as a material process, where paint itself becomes the central subject rather than merely a carrier of colour.
