Mira Pürschel – gesture, colour, space

Mira Pürschel (b. 1975, Warsaw) grew up in an artistic family and has devoted herself fully to art, constantly experimenting with media and techniques. Her practice combines bold colour, concise composition and delicate texture, most often on large-scale canvases. Rather than executing a pre-set plan, she follows present emotions, inviting an imaginative reading of the work.

Language & idea

A synthesis of gestural painting, expressive abstraction and geometric abstraction with color field and minimal art inflections. Energy and dynamism drive each painting; the process—embracing imperfection and honesty—is transformative.

Motifs & techniques

• Bold palette – high-contrast colour fields punctuated by gesture.
• Concise composition – economical layouts, tension between form and ground.
• Delicate texture – soft layering, brush traces, subtle rubbings.
• Large scale – immersive formats amplifying chromatic impact.
• Improvisation – emotion-led making over fixed aesthetic concepts.
