Polish painter Agnieszka Opala has developed an original visual iconography throughout her work. Her oil and acrylic paintings have until recently been rooted in representation, evoking Expressionism and Art Nouveau with a child art aesthetic shaping the whole. Her recent works, however, are significantly pared down and distorted. These newer paintings are in part or completely abstract, with flourishes of Art Nouveau still discernible in their ornamental details, and Expressionistic overtones in their brushwork and distorted perspectives.
Using this hybrid iconography, Opala transmits personal emotions, and intensely subjective experiences. The mixing of styles in her works is amplified by strong lines that seem to dissect many of her recent canvases into multiple plains. It's as though, through the fragmenting of her paintings, Opala seeks to communicate multiple and opposing versions of the same subject. In doing so, we rediscover relatively common feelings and situations through the lens of her specific style, windows onto the endless variety of human experience and interpretation. Agnieszka Opala’s works have been on display in numerous exhibitions throughout Europe, Asia and the USA.
