Her style is for the most part abstract. Corresponding to the titles however, there is also a figurative level.
The often cursory brush-strokes depict the "fast-lane" lifesytle and the fractive
cognition which
characterise our present world.
Abstraktina's technique is individual, layering generous amounts of bold colours
of paint repeatedly.
This doesn't just lend the art-work a strongly expressive effect but also an
idiosynchratic,
aestheticially pleasing sequence.
