Beginning around 1984, Maria Bartuszová formed pure ovoid forms, whose perfect shapes were then visibly subjected to artistic interference, being squashed, deformed, bandaged. She moulded open shell-like stigmatized forms with “negative volumes”, cavities and emptiness – “a small void full of a small endless universe.” Bartuszová’s organic, post-minimalist approach to sculpture brings to life a world of subtle, fragile and introverted sculptures, small shapes with strong psychological expression.
