The notion that everything evolves constantly lays in basis of Ela’s working-process. Nothing is clearly defined; events and “things” do not begin or end, they’re rather a momentary result of on-going processes. In her current work she focus on colour as material.

As colour is often the first given you perceive and experience, before interpreting, it is a powerful vehicle of moods and atmospheres. The materials she often works with -mainly different sorts of resins- enable her to create infinite colour-pallets with different
tactile qualities.
