Klara Sedlo

Born 1993, living and working in Prague, Czechia.

"Painting is my way of life, my way of seeing world and exploring it.

In my paintings I work with symbolical perceiving. Every little thing in my painting has deep hidden meaning - and in fact can have as many meanings, as the viewer can see.

Mostly I depict figures, often surrounded by marshmallow and fluffy unicorns and kitsches - those means to me our consume society, our desire to solve problems easily and without seeking deep or dark thruth. This thruth is on the other hand symbolized by old and dirty toys, dakr rooms or devils.

And there is many more. Lighting house means our desire to feel safe and home, and sun can refers to hopes... I do not want my paintings to make people comfortable. I want them to make viewer ask and create a story."
