LINK TO THE EXHIBITION

For her, creativity is part of simple everyday life. It is a place where she goes out expecting to meet Personal Beauty. She photographs and writes, or rather, weaves stories, the threads of which, though scattered across the frames and titles of the works, weave a common narrative of the acute and melancholy, gentle and simple abiding in the world. The viewer in an encounter with her works often identifies with the protagonists, who are shown as participants in the reality depicted in all its fullness, involved in it in all its dimensions on an equal footing. Recalling and reopening to this miraculous disposition of the human person is, paradoxically, an activity that does not require effort (activity, outlay), but rather to bare one's senses and the space around oneself, to allow silence to occur and the emergence of a tormenting longing for Paradise, to resuscitate thinking about the world in terms of fairy tales and myth. The artist calls this kind of work "mystical realism," where the metaphysical is intertwined with the material in a mysteriously obvious way, without a heavy impression of the extraordinary. Everything seems to be in its place, although it's hard to tell how this happens. The work seems to be mined from the artist's very personal experiences, although the popularity of her works indicates that these are experiences shared by many of her audience, which leads us to believe that perhaps they do indeed contain crumbs of truth about existence.
