The exhibition will present an open series of experimental paintings by Petr Nikl from recent years, focusing primarily on his current work. These are pieces on canvas and large-format Asian rice paper, created using a mixed-media technique involving colored inks, drawing inks, and loose pigments. In doing so, the artist works with the principles of both controlled and spontaneous painting, with the resulting images moving on the boundary between abstract morphology and a loosened typology of the human face. The non-literal motif is suggested through symmetrical character structures that allow for a wide range of associative readings.
