Frida Kahlo's self-portrait

Marked by surrealist influences, Frida Kahlo's folkloric and somewhat naïve art is so distinctive that it is impossible to confuse the painter's work with others. The Mexican artist became famous for her portraits, in which she clearly emphasizes her wide, knit eyebrows or the fuzz above her upper lip. Frida's adventure with painting her own face began when she was hospitalised for many weeks after a very dangerous accident with several fractures and a damaged spine. As she remained there in solitary confinement, she began to paint the 'object' she knows best.

Three-dimensional depth of image

Screw Art is made up of thousands of screws which, screwed close together into a fir board but at different depths, create an extraordinary three-dimensional sculptural relief. Each of the 70,000 screw heads becomes a tiny steel canvas for the artists. The multitude of colours, clever design, fascinating chiaroscuro, and masterful precision give the works, inspired by the works of the great masters, a new dimension. Industrial screws turn out to be a graceful material in the hands of the young talents, and the steel rawness is transformed into delicate paintings.
