Description

Bosiljka Zirojević Lečić was born in Novi Sad (Serbia) in 1971. She graduated from the Academy of Arts in Novi Sad in 1994. Early on, she engaged in an exploration of traditional and new visual media, their parallels and overlaps. Painting for her extends in the realm of felted wool, which she uses to create minimalist, precise and simple works. They are often monochrome, or there is another colour which is only there to highlight the delicate changes which occur between one geometric shape and another. The artist wants to create order to balance the chaos that infuses our deconstructed world. Through her works she is reorganizing the society in crisis in search of harmony and order. Her aesthetic comes from the artistic historical traditions of the early 20th century, namely painters like Malevich, Mondrian and De Stijl. Their works were also a visual criticism of their surroundings and the visual expression of theories which were socially sensitive.
