Esther Knapová (born 1993), in 2013-2019 AVU in Prague (painting studio doc. Vladimír Skrepl).
Ester Knap sees the landscape as a space for possible finding and sharing memories of different distances in time. In fact, the landscape itself becomes a material for purely painting memory processing. Photographic templates of specific places from the family archive, usually associated with childhood, are a memory switch that brings freely over time and more than what else is watching the inner dimension of the memory, ie the presence in the emotion and atmosphere it wants to create. But they are not always just autobiographical moments that lead the author's hand.
