The quiet unraveling that comes before everything else falls away.
Unraveling tells the story of being caught in motion — not moving forward, but dispersing. The body, though still partially defined, begins to dissolve into abstraction, as if pulled apart by invisible forces.
The horizontal lines slicing through the canvas suggest both speed and stasis — a visual echo of time stretching out, of thoughts unraveling in every direction at once. Tension holds between containment and release, between staying intact and allowing the self to come apart. This work speaks to the fragile threshold between structure and chaos, the precise moment when identity begins to fray.
It reflects a fascination with psychological transition — not the moment of collapse, but of conscious unbinding.

Full frame 100 x 100 cm (39.4 x 39.4 inch)
Parts of the body are painted in academically realistic detail, contrasting sharply with the abstract background and the overlying layers, what fade and dissolve into the surface. This tension reflects the work's themes of identity and transformation.
Built up in layers of acrylic and oil paint, with the canvas texture and drip-applied underlayers visible beneath the translucent top layer. This layered construction mirrors the themes of transformation and duality central to the work.
Museum-quality construction: premium cotton or linen canvas on a sturdy 2,5 cm deep aluminum frame, with hand-painted edges that complete the composition. A protective UV coating preserves color depth and protects against sunlight damage.
Purchase & shipping process
Optional: In-Person Viewing
Optional, you are always warmly welcome to visit my atelier in Vaassen, Gelderland, in the Netherlands, to view any painting of your choice in person before making a purchase.
Step 1 - Art Purchase Agreement
We begin by signing an Art Purchase Agreement, formalizing the sale of the agreed artwork(s).This agreement protects you as a buyer, guaranteeing delivery of your painting(s) with full legal certainty. A digital signing option is available for your convenience.
Step 2 - Invoice & Payment
Once the agreement is signed, you will receive an invoice with full payment details and payment link. Payment can be made by debit or credit card. All prices are inclusive of VAT and exclude shipping costs and framing.
- We understand that transferring a large amount can feel like a big step — especially if we haven't worked together before. That's why we offer an option with added security for the buyer: payment can also be arranged through an Escrow Company. Funds are held by a trusted third party (the escrow company) and released to Carlotta Adriaansz Art only once the artwork has been delivered undamaged.
Step 3 - Shipping
Your artwork will be carefully prepared for (inter)national shipment, by a logistics company specialized in the safe, fully insured transport of fine art. Each painting is packed in protective materials and secured in a wooden crate. International shipping takes 15–25 days, with progress updates provided.
Step 4 - Receiving Your Artwork
Every artwork is delivered ready to display, mounted on a high-quality aluminum backframe, 2,5 cm deep, with the canvas made of premium cotton or linen stretched over it. The edges of the canvas are wrapped around the frame and finished with paint and a protective top coat, meaning the artwork is ready for display without the need for an additional (decorative) frame. Each piece is hand-signed by the artist and accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity, included with every painting.
