Ida’s art is often perplexing in its symbology.

Thanks to her incredibly unique choices of texture, portraits take on novel, alien appearances.

Skin glows translucent in some of her paintings while other groupings of her artwork feature different sized canvases joined as a single image or solitary thought.

Ida’s art explores the delicate lines of sexual identity, among other things, and presents viewers with story-driven imagery to contemplate.

Enjoy her art below!
