Agata KORZENIOWSKA (b. 1972), On the Road, 2022

mixed technique (acrylic, structural paste, oil pastel), canvas, 80 x 60 cm, signed p.d.: author's stamp

The Wroclaw-born artist works in landscape painting, collage and instant photography. In 2019, she received a bachelor's degree from the Faculty of Painting and Sculpture at the Academy of Fine Arts in Wroclaw, in a studio under the direction of Prof. Janusz Merkel.
The center of her painting interests has always been landscape. The artist expresses her longing for space, air, freedom, wind in her works. The works move towards abstraction, focusing on color impressions, and the only element pointing to the landscape is the horizon line. Life experiences, the painterly path traveled, form the scaffolding of the work. This is superimposed by landscapes passed from behind car windows, people encountered, and intriguing juxtapositions of colors and textures in the surrounding space. Fleeting moments, impressions and emotions provide the impetus for the application of a particular form and color range. Mark Rothko said that his paintings are "the beginning of a journey into an unknown space." These words have become a guideline for her and a driving force for further artistic exploration.
