Izabela DRZEWIECKA (b. 1966), You are woven in majesty, 2023

mixed technique (acrylic, oil), canvas, 90 x 90 cm, signed on the back

She received her higher education at the Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań Pedagogical and Artistic Institute in Kalisz. She received her education in painting in the atelier of Professor Andrzej Niekrasz. At that time she didn't suspect that she would someday take up painting herself, although she has manifested her passion and talent for painting since childhood. She is most fond of acrylic, oil and watercolor painting. Her works are in private collections in Poland and abroad. She also does printmaking . Since 2004, she has been working at Stawiszyn Elementary School as a teacher of fine arts and art classes. She infects her pupils with her passion, commitment and love of art, creating and supporting young talents with artistic help. In recent years, she has been creating numerous abstract works, using an explosion of color and light. The technique of applying layers of paint with the gesture of obliterating and modifying previous layers becomes a form of playing with chance. The illusion of space, spontaneity, intuitive signs taken at the level of spatial logic, bring the viewer into the space of experiences and feelings of her world of matter. She has exhibitions of works from her 30-year artistic output and series of works dedicated to the discovery of contemporary art. The exhibitions have shown how the language of abstraction can unite generations into one cohesive, emotional whole. Unusual energetic paintings illuminate the gallery space with their colors and introduce exhibition participants to the world of emotions.
