Jadwiga

Maziarska

Creating structures of an organic nature while drawing inspiration from the real world and real objects built by human hands from the goods provided by nature. An intuitive approach to the creative act and considering it as a kind of event captured only by a specific moment describe the process of creation of Jadwiga Maziarska's work. The resulting image is the effect of a moment of revelation experienced by the artist. The feminine sensitivity manifested precisely in this intuitive approach to the creative process distinguishes Maziarska as an artist in the world of constructivist art dominated by phallocentrism. Her works sometimes resemble enlarged biological preparations that are prototypes of a living organism.

The paintings she created were often characterised by spatiality and multidimensionality, the result of applying many layers of paint to the canvas, the tissue of which was often modified by the introduction of original imposts, thickenings or gouges.
