Exhibitions

This is a retrospective exhibition of paintings created by the artist who draws inspiration for her artistic exploration from plants and flowers. Nature, a dominant motif, has followed her through life from a tender age. She uses it as a means of interpreting reality and also life in general. In her own unique way she applies classical techniques, such as oil and egg tempera, and blends them with modern dripping techniques to create artwork brimming with incredibly thoughtful sensibility.

Suzana Brborović initially only tries to revive the shadows and bring them to light again. This might be because her father is in the construction business in Slovenia. As a child she often wandered around constructions sites, which give a clear idea about architecture, with bare walls that seem like skeletons and are later covered in flattering, reconcilable façade.
