The mountain has fallen down Painting

The center of Patrícia Kaliczka's interest is the connection between human beings and the cosmos. She investigates the reflection of micro- and macro-cosmos in one another, the essence of energy and substance, the nature and functioning mechanisms of emotion and thought, the roles of transcendence and science and the relationship between the holistic and materialistic worldview. Her creative work is closely related to her internal work of self-knowledge and her spiritual journey. She uses her own experiences as a catalyst in formulating and questioning universal human experiences. In case of Kaliczka, the raw instinct dictated by feelings and the distilled prudence of thoughts are complementary factors during the painting process. The fierce dynamics of heart-brain dialogue has led to the development of a picturesque language over the years in which the typical practice of abstract and figurative art cannot be distinguished: the conspicuous feature of collage-like spaces is the use of material, color and composition practices connected to different styles within a work of art. Her canvases are dominated by the relationship between the backgrounds and the figure, complemented by expressive gestures, naturalistic details, blurry collages, wild composition cuts, paraphrases, mythological scenes, and symbols that deliberately causes the feeling of lack in the observer. Under the surface, the underlying hidden motif of her works is to show the floating, permeable, dynamic quality and underground interconnection of the spatial and temporal situations of the world.
