Dusa Jesih, Crucifix, polyptych 3x1,5m, acrylic on canvas, 2017
Mladi umetnici, distancirani od vseh predmetno reprezentativnih pomislekov, ki se v Galeriji FO.VI Kidričevo predstavljata prvič, se ukvarjata z zaznavnimi procesi, radikalno razgradnjo in poenostavitvijo oblik, vse do preučevanja oblikovnih elementov, ki predstavljajo sintaktično osnovo vizualne govorice.
Iz tega se porajata dva različna načina dojemanja oblike in geometrije. Duša Jesih (Ljubljana, 1977) s pomočjo slikarstva in Paola Ravasio (Varese, 1978) s pomočjo kiparstva se tako vsaka po svoje odpirata prostorom, v katerih duša in telo še vedno lahko vzpostavljata dialog ob branju prostora, svetlobe in oblikovnega izraza.
Medtem ko kompleksne skulpture Paole Ravasio predstavljajo napeta telesa in mišice, ki se želijo osvoboditi od zapletenih geometričnih oblik in se poigravajo s kontrasti med oblikami, materiali in enobarvnostjo smole in brona, nas platna in oljne slikarske instalacije Jesihove s svojo strukturo, sestavljeno iz ritma, gibanja, barv in geometrične harmonije, popeljejo k novi, sodobni obravnavi abstrakcije in pri tem zahtevajo hermenevtičen prispevek opazovalca.

About the authors:
Paola Ravasio born in 1978 in Varese. After having attended the School of Arts Frattini in her city, she moved to Carrara where she learned to work with marble. Back in Varese, she continued and expanded her research at Pietro Scampini's atelier. Her sculptures are the essence of energy, expressed through stretched muscles and tangled bodies, which constantly try to escape from the modular and geometrical structures entrapping them. This endless blending between static and sinuous shapes creates hard-hitting contrasts, though toned down by the smooth surfaces. Large and small works full of tension, an elixir of energy, vigour and personality.
Paola Ravasio realized various solo and group exhibitions in Italy, Ticino, Switzerland and participated to many Art Fairs (Verona, Genoa, Bergamo and Strasbourg). In 2014 she won the first edition of the Premio Sangregorio. One of her bronze sculptures is located in the public gardens in Sondrio. She lives and works in Caronno Varesino, near Varese.
Duša Jesih was born on 1977 in Ljubljana, Slovenia. She lives and works in Ljubljana, the capital of Slovenia.

In 2006 she post graduated in painting. For the present she lives and works in Ljubljana. Basically she is engaged in painting and printmaking which caught in some kind of conceptually levels lead up to multimedia. She participated in numerous exhibitions, colonies, residence programs and projects at home and abroad. Since 2004 she is a member of Community association of Slovenian artists ZDSLU. Since 2006 she is a mentor of art classes on Slovenian university for third life period.
