About the work

Sea

The tension between reality and fiction and the optical games with paper form a significant part of the starting point of Lucie Sceranková's work. The artist has captured the magic, magnificence and drama of nature, which can take place on the table at home. She has long worked with the motifs of natural elements and landscapes and is interested in our metaphorical and direct connection.
