"ICE LAKE CITY" Painting

Introduction Have you ever felt like you lived more than once? The hint of the ubiquitous obscurity literally seeps from the very fabric on which Rosana paints her visions. Her paintings have been described as a collapse of reality within time and space, mysteriously compressed into a single event. We are invited to travel on this journey into the unknown, equipped with our own existential questions and feelings. Although trying to solve her mystery is a different experience for each of us, the results we reach are clear and distinct for all participants. We set out on an unrealistic fantastic journey, but the destination materializes firmly and resolutely, like it is an unchangeable hidden truth. Although Rosana has demonstrated dystopian tendencies in art, she does not shroud her depictions in darkness. The future is not rose tinted glasses as what some would expect, it is what it is or is what it is not. Are we not just fragile leaves on the surface of the wildest of waters? The tendency to remind us of the fragility and circumstance of our existence raises the urgency to enjoy and celebrate life. Every ingredient of life is here to suck the most juice out of every occasion, every second and every shade of colour while conserving it into a vivid memory worth taking beyond the gate of being. Rosana's tendency in art is not following a trend, a cultural stream, or a fashion wave. Her production depends on the message. Her paintings can come to us from the distant past or breathe the atmosphere of the future. Each scene absorbs as much of its environment as possible, therefore her technique and style vary. The media she uses for her paintings are mostly canvases, acrylic, oil paints, synthetics, sand, plaster, charcoal and pencils. She likes modern abstractions, but also chiaroscuro. Her paintings represent a Neo-surrealist era where she can immediately use all her skills and dreams at once. Filling the world around her with images and shaping it to satisfy her gently obsessive nature began at an early age. She painted 3D pictures at the age of 4, then had her first public appearances at the age of 6, drawing buildings in the town's square. By the age of 14 she has filled her home with paintings and sculptures. Having both very artistic parents, she has spent her childhood among the best of the Czech cultural and creative society including her mentors and teachers: Akad.mal.
