All Hope Is Gone, All Flowers Are Dead" reflects on the quiet weight of something unraveling before it is fully built. Fragmented volumes drift apart, caught between structure and collapse—an echo of hopes that won’t take shape, of connections fading before they form. The composition holds tension between absence and presence, between what could have been and what remains.

The house I used to live, the work I used to do—stitched together in remnants, reassembled in linen. This handcrafted piece carries the quiet weight of transition, woven from leftover curtains that once framed spaces I inhabited. Layers of density and shifting shades create a landscape of uncertainty, where presence fades into absence, and past dissolves into becoming. Stitched volumes hold both structure and fragmentation, resting in the delicate balance between holding on and letting go.

Kate Bombony is a Portuguese artist of Ukrainian origin based in Lisbon, whose work explores the balance between structure and fluidity. She disrupts rigid grids with warm tones and geometric volumes, inviting viewers into surreal yet familiar spaces—whether working with wood, textiles, or paint. With a background in architecture, she co-founded Woometry, a creative carpentry studio focused on recycled wood. There, she began exploring how color can transform flat surfaces into three-dimensional images, developing a visual language that laid the foundation for her broader artistic practice. She later pursued Fine Arts, focusing on easel painting, but paused her studies to become a mother. Her experience of unmedicated birth, connecting with raw instinct and spirituality, seeking a sense of homeland within herself, and raising two daughters on her own has deeply shaped her work—transforming creation into an act of courage and authenticity.
