"Daidalos" Sculpture

The Art of Sara Cambalova is a symbiosis of past and present, where classical elements intertwine with a contemporary visual language. Her work, encompassing painting and sculpture, draws inspiration from ancient sculptures and the rich landscapes of Italy and England, a combination that is reflected in her distinctive artistic expression.
​
Sára began her artistic path at the School of Applied Arts in Bratislava and continued her studies at the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Bratislava. Her passion for sculpture led her to Venice, where she studied figurative sculpture at the Accademia di Belle Arti di Venezia. Living in Venice—a city steeped in history and art—was a formative experience for her. It was there that she fully realized the power of classical aesthetics and their timeless legacy. During her studies in Italy, she explored new sculptural techniques and worked with a variety of materials such as plaster, resin, wax, and glass.
Later, her artistic journey expanded through experiences in London, where she engaged with contemporary artistic approaches and further developed her painting practice. Here, she focused more intensively on graphic work and on experimenting with painting on unconventional materials such as glass and aluminum. London, as one of the world’s major centers of contemporary art, offered her a unique opportunity to draw inspiration from bold approaches and unconventional creations. Exhibitions of progressive international artists motivated her to experiment and to seek new forms of expression that now permeate her own work.

In her art, Sára masterfully combines traditional techniques with modern approaches. Her experience in restoration work on sculptures and architecture has given her precision and a refined sense of detail, while her time in London and Venice opened doors to contemporary artistic trends. This combination allows her to create works that are not only visually striking but also conceptually thoughtful and relevant.
Through her art, she builds a bridge between history and the present, inviting viewers into a world where tradition meets innovation and nature intersects with culture. Her paintings and sculptures reflect a profound respect for history while simultaneously seeking new forms of expression that resonate with audiences across generations. She has exhibited internationally, particularly in Italy and England.
