In The Moment by Kathe Fraga
Set your screen once. Hold a bank card against the screen and slide until the orange outline matches its width.

This is the photograph at true size, for placing it in your room with your phone. Its sides and back will appear here after the studio capture — we will not invent them.

The surface under moving light

This view is built only from real photographs of the work, each lit from a different angle, so you can move the light yourself and watch the real surface answer. It is being captured in the studio and will appear here. Until then we show nothing rather than an imitation.

“My nature narrative paintings are inspired by the romance of vintage Chinoiserie, layered with pattern, botanicals, color and hidden motifs.”— Kathe Fraga

I work into worn, distressed surfaces — here, dark gnarled branches carry their coral and pink blossoms across a soft celadon ground, the edges aging and decaying the way old walls do, as though many generations have already passed through this image. Then, at the base, that horizontal band of pale cream cuts through: the modern, unexpected note that pulls the whole piece into now. Worn surfaces and distressed textures combine to create something soft and familiar — gentle old meets dynamic new.
