About The Artwork

the work comes signed on the back and with valid certificate of authenticity. How natural is breathing? What about touching your friends? Do you remember the smell of other people? I find it alarming that an illness not only attacks us by disabling such a primary bodily function as breathing deprives us all of our basic freedom. This is the true call to a change. Or to become extinct. The series of paintings I did during the lockdown due to the Covid 19 pandemic reflect my feelings about these strange times. Paintings are watercolour on Hayle Mill Hot Press vintage paper. Made at a mill shut down in 1987 - the year I was born; each blank sheet of paper is a piece of a fine craftsmanship by itself. I am playing with transparency, notion of movement (breathing)… Inside (Imaginary Autoportrait), watercolour on Hayle Mill Hot Press 145gsm 2 x 570x770mm An imaginary autoportrait from inside with impact on the function of breathing

Czech born and a world citizen, living and working in London since 2013. I studied book-design in Ostrava in the Czech Republic and fine arts in Clermont-Ferrand in France. I am currently working as a book-binder, co-run an independent non-profit gallery 139artspace and am developing my own and collaborative artistic projects. My practise is closely linked to my personal life. There are no boundaries between me and the viewer. Through drawing, painting and bookmaking I am sharing my internal experiences in work that has the intimacy of a personal diary. Currently I am exploring the subject of motherhood and female energy. The body's transformation, experienced as transition - from girl to woman, daughter to mother - is a central theme in the work.
