Vivien Eszter Lenart

We moved to Spain a few years ago, and here, on the advice of my therapist, I began to paint my past, my blocks, and my letting go. When I paint, I completely switch off and only my feelings come to the canvas.

My works focus on abstract, layered compositions that explore inner states, time, and transformation. Using subtle gold embellishments, I create balanced structures that reflect processes of letting go and quiet reorganization.

The paintings serve as open visual spaces that invite contemplation and personal interpretation rather than narrative.

My paintings are not pre-planned images — they are processes that unfold on the canvas. As layers build up, forms slowly emerge, sometimes disappearing again.

While painting, I don’t follow a fixed outcome — I let emotion and movement guide me. Each brushstroke captures a moment.

The artwork doesn’t appear all at once — it develops gradually, as I move through it.

I didn't study painting at school, I learned and continue to learn in a self-taught way.
