GUEST
SVETLANA FIALOVÁ
Venuje sa vytváraniu obrazov, a to primárne v médiu kresby. V posledných rokoch pracovala napríklad aj s linorytom, gobelínmi a sieťotlačou, kreslila niťou po stene a v priestore, ryla do plexiskla. Jej práci však nie je nosným problémom alebo predmetom záujmu samotné médium kresby, je to však zatiaľ jej najvhodnejšia forma, ktorú momentálne používa, a ktorou sa vie vyjadriť. Ťažisko jej záujmu okrem formálnych kresebných možností a technických riešení je orientované viac k obsahovej zložke jej obrazov, a to napríklad k témam ako (vlastný) príbeh, príbeh verzus psychologizácia, irónia v umení, spoločensko – kultúrne vzťahy, mytológia, pop kultúra, post – produkcia, atď.
Primarily she dedicates herself to creating images in the art medium of drawing. In last years, she has also worked with linocut, tapestry and screen printing, drawing with a thread on the wall and in the space, pinking in Plexiglas. In her work, however, the medium of drawing is not a matter of constraint or a subject of interest, but it is the most appropriate form she currently uses and she can express herself with. The focus of her interest, apart from the formal drawings and technical solutions, is more related to the content component of her images, such as (own) story, story versus psychologization, irony in art, socio – cultural relations, mythology, pop culture, post – production, etc.
