Lenta Markevich

Lenta Markevich, born in 1983, is a visual artist currently residing and working in Prague, Czechia. Raised in Central Asia, she moved to Czechia nearly two decades ago. After graduating from Charles University in Prague with a Bachelor’s degree in Liberal Arts, Lenta dedicated herself to her artistic practice.

Initially working in classical art forms, she later discovered abstraction—a visual language that fully satisfies her need for self-expression. Through abstraction, she explores complex emotions and states, allowing color and form to communicate beyond words.

Color and texture are central to her practice, with every element carefully chosen to evoke a specific mood or emotion. Lenta is drawn to the energy of bold, expressive gestures and the quiet power of delicate nuances. The interplay of light and shadow, positive and negative space, adds layers of depth and movement, inviting the viewer to explore each piece from multiple perspectives.

Her works are in private collections across multiple countries, including Czechia, Germany, France, the Netherlands, Spain, China, Japan, and the USA.
