JULIE KOPOVÁ (B. 1995)

Born in 1995, Julie Kopová recently graduated from the Prague Academy of Fine Arts. Her abstract paintings are powerful, rhythmic contemplations that weave between music, philosophy, poetry and art history. Interested in metaphorical landscapes—encompassing those internal and external, terrestrial and cosmic—Kopová’s expansive canvases consider complex notions of infinity and boundlessness, and nod to Romantic aesthetics of the sublime. Known for her sophisticated handling of paint, she renders vibrant colour fields that are alive with gestural brushwork. Emotive and lyrical, her practice is expressive and deeply interdisciplinary.
