Painted toenails, veined foreheads and flower bulbs—van Zyl's intimate and moody paintings comprise an oeuvre unsettling, poetic and vulnerable
Through intimate, almost microscopic glimpses of body parts, still lifes and landscapes, South African painter Ina van Zyl (born 1971) models a visual language marked by close-ups, sensual surfaces and psychological intensity. Featuring essays and an interview, this is the first monograph dedicated to her work.
