An artist and photographer, Alžběta Wolfová
is a graduate of the Beaux-Arts de Paris and the Academy of Arts, Architecture
and Design in Prague. Her practice gives colour a crucial role and is inspired
by the first analogue photographic techniques elaborated during the nineteenth
century, which she distorts: Wolfová uses filters and effects to manipulate the
image.
With her photographs as well as her
drawings and prints, the artist crafts a poetic and illusory universe. Playing
with lights, bright colours, and reflection effects, she lays a veil of magic
over reality. Whether capturing landscapes or natural elements – flowers,
feathers… – she reinvents the boundaries between artificial and organic.
