Artist Statement for Aleksandra Jarosz Laszlo
|
|
|
Figure and human form play a very important element in my work.
I constantly refer to myself. Although there are others. People I care about and people I meet. I freeze a remembered moment on canvas. Like the expression of a thought or a feeling, somebodys face, laugher, a grimace, or a body posture.
The subject which I find for my work comes from everyday life and it can be personal or about something I’ ve seen on TV or read in a newspaper. I try to expose many of our unconcious thoughts as well as some of the more uncomfortable human impulses, like envy, betrayal or humiliation.
Relationships between the characters in my pictures depict the power games we play with each other, games which end with tears as often as with laughter.They show people’s frailty and vulnerability as well as their capacity for joy or pleasure, their cruelty as well as their affection.
I tell stories of personal and cultural transformation, of fear and hope
