SOLO 26 ART REVIEW
Jagoda Karać-Ivanov is an artist who is extremely interested in visualising people and human experiences. Her work is highly individualistic and reveals a desire to communicate her perceptions of humanity to the viewer. Tour d' Art is an exhibition that marks the twentieth year since the date of her first solo exhibition in Belgrade, Serbia.
Lower Hutt based artist, Karać-Ivanov works mainly in drawing and collage. She creates sophisticated portraits that show a psychological understanding of social interaction. Her mixed media works show distorted faces whose natural contours have been transformed into a fantastical and surrealistic world. The figures appear as behind masks viewing the world behind their external appearance. They are circus performers engaging in the balancing act of everyday life. She invites viewers to explore the textures and complexities of human interaction and communication.
Karać-Ivanov is interested in depicting ordinary people in order to show the truth behind our daily lives. She depicts figures that emerge out profound experiences and spiritual journeys. Her people often reference the deep underlying melancholy of the human condition.
Karać-Ivanov has a balanced and illustrative style that harks back to folk and mosaic art of Eastern Europe. Her works are complementary to her work as an accomplished graphic artist and recent forays into photography continues to explore ideas of human experience and her interest in geometrical elements and synthesis of colour. In Karać-Ivanov's photography, she is interested in depicting the transient and forgotten objects of everyday. Her artistic photography breaks with traditional ideas of composition and beauty.
All of Karać-Ivanov's art works are inflected with her observations of her surroundings and her focus on the beauty of small details. Karać-Ivanov looks to her environment and elevates the ordinary in an extraordinary.
