“The basic idea presented in my work is that every living being within his environment interacts and rules his life independently. What arise from that experience becomes visible in my paintings,” says internationally acclaimed artist Eva Fellner, who was born in Hungary and currently is living since 1977 in Vienna – Austria.
She says, “All human beings are integrated in every days and social life as well as the environment. No visible borders, but felt crossings – that is what I am catching in my paintings.”
The direction and shape of her new art is an intimate insight that speaks to us through soft expressions and captured movements.
She uses the flow of her brush to create painting gestures that lead from one shape into another with sinew and line technique that is as organic as it is voluptuous.
Eva sums up her approach by saying, “I scoop on the one hand from personal experiences and on the other hand from my observations.”
Eva obtained her first award at the age of 14 by winning the first prize of the Budapest school competition in the field of small sculptures. After matriculation, she worked as a restaurateur in the Hungarian National Gallery. In addition, she took five times a week courses in Desi Huber’s Artist circle. She also worked in the field of graphics and China paintings (porcelain) and ended successfully the course as a shop-window decorator. Furthermore she also visited courses at Art school Lazarettgasse in Vienna and seminars by Prof. Fischer at Academy of Fine Arts and Professor Kaiser.
She took part in 60 exhibitions at national level and abroad, including Int’l Art Festival 2007 and 2009 in Korea.
