BARBARA DERECKA ART

Barbara Derecka - Artist Statement

As an artist, I explore the depth and complexity of the human experience, particularly through the lens of femininity, nature, and fleeting moments. My acrylic and oil paintings are deeply inspired by the strength and vulnerability of women, the mysterious beauty of underwater worlds, and the urgent need for environmental protection. Each brushstroke captures a moment in time, blending vivid colors and textures to evoke emotion and reflection.

Through my work, I aim to create a dialogue between the viewer and the world we inhabit, reminding us of our connection to nature and to one another. My pieces are not just visual expressions, but also invitations to pause, reflect, and immerse yourself in the delicate balance of beauty, power, and fragility that exists in every moment.

Art, for me, is a way to amplify the voices of women, highlight the significance of preserving our planet, and capture the ephemeral nature of time itself.
