About Jasnica
Jasnica Klara Matić’s mixed media work is a bevy of twinned representations. Her compositions are organic both in the way her subjects seem to grow from and out from the canvas, and in their metaphorical significance. We see her subjects bound up intrinsically with the earth and its processes; shapes seem to split away from each other like mitosis, what seems like one thing slides easily around the viewers eye and mind to become something more biological and elemental. These formidable themes and questions- birth and death, the inherent impermanence of our reality, and the spiritual kinesis of human beings in relation to the earth and the elements- are balanced with a lovely and light palette that gives one the feeling of serenity. Her work is heavily textured using materials such as incense, wax, salt, and herbs traditionally used in healing practices.
Jasnica has spent more than fifteen years exploring different aspects of spirituality. She uses painting as a means of healing and reconciling the mind and body.

Tina Wendon’s Impressions of the Inner Psyche at Agora Gallery
In her ethereal and finely detailed style of portraiture, Tina Wendon develops an expressive realism of air and mood, bringing to light a faithful interpretation and a sense not just of the subjects’ physical characteristics but of their innermost life and emotions. As she creates her works in oil paint on canvas or linen with occasional elements of mixed media, Wendon creates an illusion of reality, applying thin layers of…
Isabelle Gardelle Explores the Spirituality and Purpose in Color and Form of Rea …

Imbued with a sense of spirituality and purpose, each image is vast in scope, defined by a masterful use of line and form. Colors are bold or muted, depending on the mood the artist is trying to convey. Compositions create a sense of drama and interest, drawing the viewer in beyond the recognizable forms…
