biography

kata novák / painter

My painting practice is primarily related to oil painting. In my works, I use motifs known from the tradition of European painting, arranged in a personal pictorial system. My central figure is an idealized, white-colored, animal-like creature that carries delicate human gestures and represents the image of purity and perfection. The figures are not narrative characters, but function as timeless, mythical presences. My painterly world is defined by the tranquility of nature and classical pictorial thinking.
I currently live and create in Zalaegerszeg.
