The Red Collection is an artistic collaboration between Swedish painter Ingela Johansson and British author Natalie Turner, inspired by the novel The Red Silk Dress.
Seven original canvas paintings — each a response to one of seven emotional thresholds explored in the book. Through expressive brushwork and layered texture, the works give visual form to the inner landscapes of courage, vulnerability, identity and transformation.
Red has long carried the weight of what we dare not yet say. In this collection, it becomes a shared language between word and image — an invitation to pause at the threshold and feel what is asking to emerge.
Each painting is a unique original, created in Sweden.
