In Innocence, Johanna Bath explores the fragile boundary between memory and perception. Rendered in her signature blurred style, the painting evokes the hazy warmth of a fleeting moment, soft, intimate, and emotionally charged. With delicate tones of peach, cream, and shadowy contours, Bath abstracts what might be fabric or flesh into an image that resists fixed interpretation. The composition feels both tender and enigmatic, inviting the viewer to recall their own associations of vulnerability and purity. Bath’s use of photographic softness gives the work a dreamlike aura, aligning with her ongoing investigation into the textures of nostalgia and identity.
