Pavla Malinová

Pavla Malinová is one of the essential young Czech painters. A remarkable author who deserves much more attention. It is very interesting to follow her not-so-long artistic career. Already during her studies at the Faculty of Arts of the University of Ostrava, she was among the exceptional talents. Her painting can be characterized as refined, technically very advanced, but above all, unusually imaginative.

Pavla Malinová’s paintings are a synthesis of the hidden messages of human works. Her language is suggestive, but still legible. She works with references and places and metaphors. In many cases, it is about the relationship between two worlds. Between man and woman, between the clear and the unspoken, between vulgarity and tenderness. Pavla Malinová is close to something of brutalism and primitivism, although her works almost always speak of femininity. He also bases his expression on distinctive color, which is not used for the purpose of artificially exaggerating or multiplying the resulting effect, but is in direct dialogue with the form and meaning of the works themselves.
