Zdenek Konvalina

Czech artist Zdenek Konvalina, born in 1979, is currently based in Berlin, Germany. His work, influenced by his former career as a ballet dancer, explores the intersection between ballet and his artistic practice. Konvalina’s process is driven by the instinct of the body and subconscious, delving into concepts, thoughts, forms, and memories. He navigates contrasts such as the blurred versus the clear, the distant versus the near, and movement versus stillness. Utilizing various tools, including spray paint, airbrushes, brushes, and oil pastels, and employing delicate, understated colors alongside evolving traces of production, Konvalina investigates the relationship between material and spiritual dimensions, ultimately achieving a harmonious inner vision.
