A devoted storyteller, the artist Tereza Zichova likes to return to historical periods such as the Baroque or Renaissance, only to create surreal and bizarre sceneries with a strong narrative subtext. Tereza often relies on historical publications and references for accuracy when depicting characters, textiles and objects reminiscent of old times – all while drawing inspiration from fairy tales and science fiction alike. Her goal? Create paintings that tell stories; preferably with a mysterious and subversive touch.
