TATJANA KRIZMANIC

On display through June 4, 2019

HOURS M-F 10 - 5:30, SAT 10 - 3

In Tatjana Krizmanic’s new exhibit, city interiors, still lifes and coastal landscapes, continue life-long themes of comfort, creativity and warmth of home and family, and the magical beauty of the coast. Especially coastal Croatia, Tatjana’s homeland.

In addition to her lively and beloved pastel paintings, Tatjana breaks out into a new format that was historically used in altar pieces. Multi-panel oil paintings of landscapes, bays and harbors celebrate moments of wonder. The multiple panels
give each area of the landscape its own recognition, its own “painting” unto itself and the scale allow the viewer to capture a feeling of awe.

The lotus pond diver series is inspired by a recurring dream and is a response to the collective awakening of women and men. Surging up from the mysterious darkness of the pond with the lotus, or water lily which traditionally symbolizes compassion.
