Self Discovery: A Conversation with Kirsten Deirup

"Kirsten Deirup, whose creations smoothly blend the familiar and factual with the incredible and uncanny. Whether composing still life portraits or building idyllic landscapes filled with the surreal and conceptual, her realistic rendering of such visuals pique interest when viewing the imagery. Skillfully depicting depth and light, her pictures regularly surprise with perspective and expectations as she switches from representational figuration to surrealism, rendered through traditional techniques and formats."
