Description
In the painting *It’s Hard to See*, Klaudie Švrčková depicts a woman raising her arms above her head. The body is rendered in shades of gray; her red lips remain the only splash of color. Her gaze is directed slightly to the side.
The artist works in her characteristic impasto style with strong contours. The gesture is open and yet vulnerable, as if seeing were just as difficult as being seen.
A hand-painted original that brings a tension between revelation and concealment into the space. A painting that looks out while simultaneously hiding itself.
