Ewa Mazur-Koj

Lines and colors develop their own visual language and handwriting.
My paintings combine realism with abstraction — they are intense and emotional, sometimes delicate and full of contrasts.
It is an art between the worlds, in which reality is dominated by a dreamy, fantastic atmosphere – an atmosphere that occupies the viewer.
I often tries to visually express feelings and emotional states. It is not uncommon for different techniques to be combined, which is paradigmatic for the broad spectrum of motifs and printed emotions that I am able to express in my works.
In my work, the female body symbolizes strength and sensitivity — balancing between power and delicacy.
The coloring of the abstract backgrounds corresponds to the theme. Sometimes the colors are strong, sometimes delicate.

In my childhood, I experienced very difficult moments that deeply affected my psyche. My artistic work allows me to process these experiences and give them meaning. Through painting, I can give form to my most sensitive memories and emotions — art allows me to create a new narrative of my past.

I was born in Tarnowskie Gory, in Poland, in 1977, and studied advertising graphics in Katowice. Between 1999 and 2000, I spent a year living in Italy. Since 2004, I have lived and worked in Germany. In 2013, I completed my studies in graphics with an IHK diploma. I initially worked as a graphic designer, but life led me to pursue a career as an artist. In addition to my artistic practice, I also give private lessons and organize courses.
