Style: figurative
Technique: natural pigments and oil on canvas

Kamila’s work grows from careful observation of landscape, plants and the shifts of natural environments. Through slow layering, she creates atmospheric compositions in which botanical forms appear and dissolve, guided by muted light, tonal contrast and a subtle sense of movement.

Kamila Sipika, various works, 2025


Her process starts with observation: studying landscapes, noting surrounding plants, drying flowers and leaves, and testing them as pigments. This expands into researching the historical andcultural uses of plants, as well as examining natural depictions of other artists across different (folk)traditions.
These observations form the seeds of her subjects. From there, the work unfolds slowly - through layering, shifts in color, and intuitive responses to material. The process is both investigative and reflective, guided by curiosity for nature’s forms, stories and hidden structures. Her visual language is subtle and rooted in materiality. She works with natural pigments and oilpaint on linen, cotton and organic paper, letting the qualities of each surface remain present.
Her palette draws from muted, earthy tones: silvery blues, soft yellows, faded greens, warm greys, browns and sandy neutrals. These colors grow from observation and experimentation, carrying the atmosphere of stillness and slowness that threads through her work. Some pigments are producedin the studio from dried plants, soil or leaves, strengthening the connection between subject and material and embedding ecological awareness into the work.
