Stanislaw Zoladz, Sweden

Εικόνα
Stanislaw Zoladz, born in Poland in 1952, moved to Sweden after completing his art education at the Art Academy in Krakow in 1978. Since then he has been active as a full-time artist in Sweden.  He’s participating in many international exhibitions over the world. He has been recognised as “master of watercolours “ after years of painting and many prizes in international competitions.  Stanislaw’s words about his art:  "Nature has always been my source of inspiration, it dominates my works. In the summer I paint in the archipelago. I wait for the sun's reflections on wet rocks, catch shadows, reflections in water and paint stones under the water's surface.   My paintings do not provoke, they lack a direct message, they do not depict the present, but they should make the viewer stop and reflect. I only paint when I myself experience something that touches me and that is the feeling I want to pass on to the viewer"

Born in Isfahan (Iran), she holds a bachelor's degree in Mathematics.  Self- taught artist, she first followed the realist style.  As any artist, she needs to explore and create, thus searching on networks for other artists who had different styles to what she was used to see.  She has been influenced by Alvaro Castagnet, Paul Ching Bor.  Her style evolves and she creates her own technique.  The situations she has been through and the artists she met have represented an important influence in the evolution of her style, receiving the support of these artists in the development of her career, who also gave her the chance to share projects with them.
