About the author:
Silvie Kořistková is a Czech visual artist whose work balances between abstraction and figuration. She focuses on landscape as an internal state – a space of memory, experience, and perception that can manifest through abstract form, portrait, and animal motifs. Her paintings are not descriptions of a specific reality but a record of process, tension, and transformation.
She primarily works with acrylics, often directly with her fingers, in direct contact with the material. Structure, layering, and intuitive decision-making during painting play a significant role in her work. The resulting paintings bear a distinct weight, a trace of the process, and the physical presence of color.
Her work features abstract landscapes, portraits, and animal figures, which are not understood as standalone motifs but as part of a broader space. The landscape functions here as a carrier of memory and internal experience, while the figure – human or animal – becomes its natural component.
