About The Artwork

Very typical still life of my kitchen table during lockdown. We have fed every toy while eating, that's for my son would finish his breakfast, lunch or dinner plate. I would like to mention wooden panel I used for painting. This wooden panel dates from the 80s I painted on covered by different types and color of spots and prints that have formed and appeared during 40 years. These are scratches and stains of various origins. The wooden surface retained the patina of time and archived various traces of frozen moments of life. It reminded me of the surface of the dining table, at which life routine happens every day: solving important problems, clarifying relations between family members, discussing future plans... each of these moments leaves an invisible mark in time. This artwork of series focus on the reality of social distancing and home quarantine. Everybody was locked in their houses. "In my case, everything moved to the kitchen table during the quarantine. It became especially important place for the family. At the dining table we have solved different problems, clarified personal relationships and plans for the future. My dining table has become the child's playground, my husband's office and, of course, the family's dining table at the same time. Everything cycled around the table. I repeatedly asked myself - where is my place as an artist in this house? ”

I use a mix of techniques to create my paintings. I am interested in the aesthetics of hidden, undiscovered and often invisible matters. I consider/examine personal experience, feelings and involvement in the context of historical and social events in order to find opportunities for transformation and adaptation to new living conditions. I engage with social subjects such as power, stateless status, migrations, integration, assimilation, consumption, female issues and also rituals, traditions and the ghosts of the past, inhabiting and hacking our current state of affairs.
