"For me, art is liberation. I am interested in working with an idealized depiction5, beauty without a soul.
I am fascinated by the opposites that exist in us – submissiveness and dominance in relationships,
the struggle with what we rationally want and what we irrationally desire. I think that the discrepancy between
the tensions we feel, and the expectations placed on us is more pronounced for women.
These contradictions make me feel that I have not been told the truth…"
Quote of a text written in collaboration with Michaela Kučová (2021).
