"Sinta Tantra’s blue series with gold leaf presents a refined balance between depth and luminosity. Dominated by layered blue tones, these works evoke a sense of calm spatial expansion, reminiscent of sky or oceanic horizons, while maintaining her signature geometric precision.
The application of gold leaf introduces a contrasting element of light and material richness—catching and reflecting illumination as the viewer moves. This interplay between matte blue surfaces and shimmering gold accents creates a dynamic tension between stillness and radiance, transforming the work into both a visual and spatial experience."
