Michaela Vrbkova
By using materials such as oil, bitumen and shellac, I allow images to emerge spontaneously from the darkness of the material. Through this process, I have learnt to relinquish rational control and to see myself as a pure medium – as a conduit through which hidden narratives and latent figures push their way to the surface.
Inspired by the logic of dreams and matter’s ability to take on physical form, I use painting to navigate the landscapes of my own experiences and personal traumas. The canvas thus becomes a psychological space on which silhouettes and fragments of scenes manifest in an embryonic state – hovering between the abstraction of the gesture and the clarity of memory.
