50x70, oil on canvas, 2022
"Alicja Kogut - her oil paintings are joyful versions of everyday life. They are colorful impressions on the borderline between the real and fairy tale worlds, and she combines formal correctness with the ineptitude of children's coloring books.
This is what he says about himself: "Art school, work as a teacher and art instructor are long behind me, so I can finally paint what is in my soul, which is more with my heart than with my mind. It is said that "every age has its rights," so I have given myself the right to fireworks of color, flying houses, ladders to the sky, my own moon and my own sun. I turn everyday reality into colorful abstractions, surreal landscapes, trees growing in the clouds (...). I have the right and joy in breaking perspective correctness, twisting obvious shapes and reversing chiaroscuro. I paint for myself and for those who like the world seen from the better side. I see how the wrinkles of everyday life in its busyness and toil can be smoothed out with a little color, fantasy and joy."
