Kas Galos is a contemporary and visual artist whose career path as an art director has presented her with commercial projects around the world. A fascination with all that art is and can be, has seen her to evolve into someone who chooses to communicate in artistic language.
Fascinated by the culture, heritage, and philosophy of Japan has left a permanent mark on her design style and attitude towards life. While in Kyoto for the first time she discovered Kintsugi philosophy which has stayed with her since and on which the current installation has its foundation. Her art invites us to see the beauty in imperfection and the potential for transformation and growth. It challenges us to question our preconceptions about beauty and perfection, inviting us to embrace the flaws and imperfections that make us unique.
Roksana’s and Kas’s similar soulful passions – particularly that of Japan – found them regularly collaborating. This partnership has led to the Aurea installations series. Their works are created while seeking to capture the unknown that moves our souls, the spirit within, that which heals, that which gives hope.
