“Nina Kossman’s paintings serve as windows into profound realms. These canvases, devoid of unnecessary embellishments, capture the raw essence of age-old myths. With a minimalist yet wondrous approach, Kossman’s brushstrokes breathe life into narratives that transcend cultural boundaries. The paintings in “Myths and Mirrors” challenge viewers to confront the universal threads of existence, inviting them to reflect on the enduring relevance of ancient stories in our contemporary lives.” – from the introdiction to the Kossman’s solo exhibition at the Kozmos Gallery, New York, NY.
