ABOUT

Coma Yank is a professional illustrator and an artist based in Somerset, England, working in a variety of media. Special attention is paid to linear drawing, elaboration of details and thoughtfully planned composition.

Her works  are permeated with important philosophical concepts - life and death, conscious and unconscious. When creating images,  she doesn't do sketches as she finds spontaneity the key element   in expressing  her current state of mind and possibility of keeping a line “alive” and active.

The pieces of poetry , the fragments of memorable dialogues from dreams, phrases from books, pieces of the stream of consciousness  - all of them eventually get certain emotions and feeling and that is how the image is created. The moment she feels the image she needs to see  it on the paper immediately.

Through her works she explores elements of dreams and reality. The anxiety we feel in reality  and the viscous immersion in sleep is often achieved with the help of the “game” and the "liveliness" of the constantly changing line, which also gives an understanding of the cyclical nature of the constant destruction and renewal of images.
