Color in the paintings of Aleksandra Jachtoma is the most important thing. The artist, in an attempt to find the right color for emotion, applies many layers of paint to an ultimately textureless canvas, which only after proper processing, as she says, "gets air" and can be considered a work of art. Otherwise it's just paint squeezed out of a tube and a sub-painting, not the perfect color she has spent nearly 60 years of creative work studying. In the documentary she recalls: "Painting is a constant struggle with paint to turn it into color." This quest involves many layers of thin, almost laser-like layers of successive colors, over their surprising juxtapositions - where she often tries to reconcile her two favorite colors: blue and red. "I think art is not for understanding, it's for absorbing it," he says. - he mentions in the footage. That's why two more factors that are exceptionally important in Alexandra Jachtoma's paintings - orderliness and luminosity - are essential. Devoid of chaos - energetic brushstrokes, the painter's canvases balance between colorism and geometric abstraction quietly asking for a moment of contemplation and an attempt to experience what an aesthetic experience is.
