here is a little bit about me, where I am coming from as an artist:
I am from Brno, Czech Republic. I moved to New York when I was 20 and went to art schools there (NY Studio School and Hunter College). Several years later I landed in Seattle -- via Lake Tahoe, California -- following my at the time perfectly rational reasoning that my husky dog Walter will do better up north. I set my roots down here, started a family...
As an artist I have been working underground (both literally and figuratively). For many years my work has developed in my basement studio in a relative isolation, without much contact with the outside world and artist community. Because of this my work tends to focus inward, towards dreams and subconscious, exploring psychological concepts of self awareness and perception. In the recent couple of years, things have changed; following my impulse to connect this inner world with the outer one, I have created an experimental project space called NEPO House. NEPO House is an experiment in integration of art into domestic environment. For me it is also a vehicle for collaboration and active participation. I am having lots of fun curating shows, and enjoy collaborating with other artists. This project has been one of the most dynamic factors propelling my work forward.

my latest ARTIST STATEMENT:

"The highest art of all is the art of living your life."
