Monika Pascoe Mikyšková (* 1983) works with monumental watercolour painting and plant-based or "mineral" objects. Her current installations resemble herbarium prints, moldings and casts combined with indoor plants. The questions of human corporeality and emotional experience interfere with the inhuman time of plants - caught and exposed, embedded in the botanical collection or artificially fossilized by decorative intervention. Sophisticated sculptural approach alternates with the intuitive accumulation of natural tissues.
Veronika Vlková (* 1985) combines emotionally aligned drawings and watercolors with complexly constructed installations in which she imaginatively layers video, textile objects, tiny ceramics and natural materials. She creates both narrative and freely associative structures, she also has long been dedicated to illustration and animation, especially in multimedial collaborative work with Jan Šrámek. Emotionally tense interior scenes and dreamy landscapes stretched between fateful melancholy and stoic serenity are now being shifted towards sensitive exploration of childlike imagination and scenicly constructed fantastic environment.
