In '94 she immigrated to Canada furthering her creative studies at <a href="http://www.ocad.ca/">OCAD</a>. Katarina <b>(aka Skazka - <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_Pushkin">Сказка</a>) </b>found her artistic soul at the tender age of 7 and has been involved in artistic enterprises ever since. Currently, she lives and works in the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queen_Street_West">Queen West</a> district of Toronto with videographer and film maker E. Gelmini. Katarina is also a Master Gilder, a qualified <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservation-restoration">conservator</a> and the founder of <a href="http://www.orogilding.com/">ORO Gilding.</a><br /><br /><i>Skazka’s art is mostly automatic, “informal”, her early work on paper and canvas was compared to surrealists, Jean Dubfett’s art brute and Francisco Clemente, later develops into more abstract structure and finds its own primal philosophy. Her sculptures are minimalist in shapes & heavy with content and her videos are raw with existentialistic questions. Skazka’s work aims to find a symbolic solution for internal tensions and sufferings. </i><i> </i><b>Monika Geresz, Art Director</b><br /><b><br /></b><b><span style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-size: large;"><span style="color: #cccccc;">artistic statement</span><br /></span></b><br /><i><span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">My aim as an artist is to discover and express what is not possible to depict, to see or perceive, the “invisible reality”. To find a concept of direction, distance, weight in remoteness and raw emotions in order to capture the narrative, and possible interactions within metaphysical structures. </span><span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Following </span><a href="http://www.hanshofmann.net/" style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Hofmann’s</a><span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"> push and pull theory, I am using color to discover depth and perspective.
