The residency marked a deepened engagement with material rather than a shift in direction. Rooted in traditional papermaking, the practice evolved to integrate pigment directly into the pulp, allowing colour to become intrinsic to the structure itself.
Guided by natural forces such as water, gravity, and fibre, each work emerged as a unique, unrepeatable form, where process replaced control, and material became both medium and presence.
I love Mixa’s work because when I see them I am reminded of her - her smile, her energy and her warmth. Having a Mixa piece is like having her there with you brightening your home.

Through her use of natural materials I always feel her biggest priority is to be in harmony with Mother Earth and to protect it in any way she can. I always feel she works very hard not to hurt it which, of course, underlines her emphasis on the environment and sustainability.

I call her work Gesamtkunstwerk[s] or total works of beauty with each piece as testimony to a masterful artistic synthesis of intellect, spirit, emotion, wonderment and joy. This is Mixa.
