"I always sought out places where water, air and land converge and seemed to flow into one another. Sitting on a rock in Ventimiglia, Italy, I was nine years old, with the mountains at my back and a view of the sea, I felt safe, as if I had the complete perspective of nature and the layers of the world around me"

TECTONICS series
In the TECTONICS series, Marjanka investigates the effect of different layers of material that seem to shift relative to each other like plates. They come together, slide past each other or drift apart. An intriguing image emerges of texture, colour, light, shadow, reflections and lines.
