Maja KOZLOWSKA (b. 1980), Red, 2024

oil, canvas, 120 x 90 cm, signed on the back

Maja Kozlowska (born 1980 in Wroclaw, Poland), graduated in Painting (diploma in 2022 in the studio of Prof. J. Merkel) and Postgraduate Plastic Disciplines in Architecture (diploma in the studio of Prof. S. Kortyka in 2019) from the E. Geppert Academy of Fine Arts in Wroclaw, Poland. She grew up in Kazimierz Dolny on the Vistula River. Her works are inspired by nature, Vistula landscapes and the far north. She creates abstract landscapes, architectural motifs and video realizations. Through the filter of introspection, she analyzes the surrounding reality and processes it in her works, encouraging the viewer to pause in a space of sometimes only apparent calm. Always on a journey - through the world of literature, sounds, distant corners of the world - he often returns, however, to places closest to him, like the land of his childhood.
