Brachaim loves oil colors. It is one favorite medium to express herself exciting and powerfully. The collection she displays here shows very clearly her way to paint in oil. She strove some time more and more to paint in heavy layers of oil paint, a technique called impasto, giving the work a sculptural dimension and suggesting organic structures 'blooming' from the canvas. It breaks down the boundaries between art and viewer. The paint becomes an almost living entity, a part of the experienced world which reaches out to us and strengthening the bonds between the self and the world we inhabit, symbolizing the relationship between the artist and her creation.
The viewer is invited on an aesthetic journey through raw, thick, straight-from-the-tube textures combined with brilliant colors but yet present in their distinctive individual form.
