OLGA DZIEMIDOWICZ
Olga Dziemidowicz is a Polish-born artist currently working from her studio in St Kilda. Her practice is centered around painting, but also includes drawing, and experimental works in different mediums. Utilizing abstraction, chance, and intuitive processes, she explores themes of the sublime, subconscious, and our connection to nature.
Drawing inspiration from the natural world, Dziemidowicz aims to capture the creative, healing, and universal value of nature in her work. Her use of expressive brushstrokes and bold colors invites viewers to look deeper and experience the natural landscape in a new and unique way. Embracing chance in the creative process, she works intuitively, allowing her subconscious to guide her.
For Dziemidowicz, her art is deeply rooted in her values of freedom, joy, and authenticity. She believes in the importance of listening to oneself and following one's calling. Painting the landscapes that inspire her is a way of expressing this calling and sharing it with the world, with the hope of inspiring others to do the same.
In addition to her artistic practice, Dziemidowicz has also worked as an architect and designer. These experiences have helped her to understand line, form, and perspective, as well as empathize with others. However, it is through her work as an artist and painter that she feels most connected to something bigger and finds true happiness, because, when creating, she feels she is where she belongs.
