Blooming Memories
Until January 14, Kerametal Office Gallery, Jašíkova 2.
Katarína Molnárová, an artist based in the picturesque town of Tisovec in central Slovakia, draws her inspiration from everyday life, the natural world, and the timeless elegance of flowers. Her work, a rich tapestry of diverse techniques, radiates warmth and positivity. "Right now, flowers dominate my art; they should help us rediscover beauty and harmony in this chaotic world," she reflects. Her canvases burst with vibrant colours and expressive strokes, serving as a much-needed reminder of life's quieter joys amidst the turmoil.
