In her work, Ewa Juszkiewicz enters into discussion with traditional, visual conventions and confronts the stereotypical perception of a woman’s beauty in classical, European painting. Through the deconstruction of historical portraits, she undermines their constant, indisputable character and seeks to influence the way we perceive them. Juszkiewicz experiments with the form of the female figure and face, balancing on the border between what is human and inhuman.Her paintings are classical in technique but subversive and rebellious in terms of content.
