Iza Kono

Born in Poland in 1978, studied Advertising, Art and Design and Contemporary Art Practice. I am currently living and working in the United Kingdom. My work is eclectic. I paint mainly abstract but also figurative, I like to explore shapes, colours, line and texture. My themes evolve around personal interpretation of the visible and imaginary objects. I translate my emotions through encounter with form and colour.
I have started to paint from very early stage of my life, I also experimented with different medias such as: sculpture, photography, video work, illustration and design. I feel most at home with abstract painting. My paintings are mostly acrylic, I like to create texture by collaging paper, plaster and found objects onto a canvas. My work resonates with passion for colour, light, line and texture.
