Jolanta Johnsson
Nude Woman with Red Mystery

2024

About the Item

Jolanta Johnsson, experienced Polish artist, graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw, PhD of fine arts, university teacher. She currently lives in Sweden. This is how she writes about the drawing: "The nude woman is present in art in countless works showcasing her beauty and grace. Artists are particularly drawn to this motif, likely because women symbolize not only beauty but also goodness, gentleness, and various other positive concepts. The portrayal of a nudewoman figure, revealed, without a dress, can capture the exquisite allure of the female body. This depiction is frequently seen in paintings, captivating art enthusiasts who have always held a deep fascination for such images, even during times when they were officially prohibited. In my painting, I have chosen to simplify the silhouette of the woman. Rather than intricate details, I have employed a collection of forms that, when combined, outline the figure's contour, enveloping the central point of the composition. At the heart of this artwork lies an intense red, serving as a symbol of something significant, perhaps deeply meaningful to the woman herself. She embraces this vibrant, fiery hue, red mystery, as if safeguarding it for her own possession. Could it be that her secrets are concealed within? After all, every individual harbours their own personal mysteries. This painting seeks to explore precisely that." The creation of this artwork utilizses the monotype technique, a process involving the artist's use of stencils, which are meticulously drawn and cut out. Additionally, a relief print is applied from a linoleum matrix, adding depth and texture to the piece on professional, high quality Fabriano paper. Hand-painted elements further enhance the uniqueness of each work. The term "monotype" signifies the singularity of the artwork, as while multiple copies may exist, each piece is distinct and stands as a one-of-a-kind creation.
