Jena Polak "Black Pond"
115x75, acrylic on canvas, 2020
Graduate of the Institute of Fine Arts at the Jan Długosz Academy in Częstochowa, she completed her diploma in the painting studio of Prof. Leon Maciej (in 2006). Member of the Association of Polish Artists, district in Katowice (since 2007). Author of many solo exhibitions ,among others in Czestochowa, Warsaw, Krakow, Katowice, but also in Amsterdam. In her own words: "My art is born from observation and analysis. It looks for justifications of existence, appreciates ordinariness and everyday life, develops awareness. It analyzes, concludes, discusses, conveys personal experiences, emotions, serious and general thoughts-the richness of ourselves." Jena Polak reaches into the depths of the image, into the depths of what she sees, rendering reality faithfully on the one hand, and on the other, exposing those elements that are overlooked at first glance by the casual viewer.
