In Urban Refraction, Vita Jansone reimagines the built environment through a fragmented, almost reflective lens. Painted in acrylic and mixed media on canvas, the composition hints at a distant skyline mirrored across water, dissolving into a vibrant field of colour and texture.
Jansone’s abstracted landscape approach is particularly striking here, as structure gives way to expressive mark-making. The colour palette is bold and energetic—fiery reds and oranges pulse against cooler greys and muted blues, while flashes of yellow add brightness and tension. The layering of paint creates a sense of depth, as if the scene is both emerging and disintegrating at once.
This original work captures the rhythm and energy of an urban landscape without ever becoming literal. It is available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art and online, offering a dynamic and contemporary interpretation of place and reflection.
