About
Eva Fajčíková (*1990) is a painter, a graduate of the Prague Academy of Fine Arts, whose work focuses on two main themes, namely figurative work and video game environments.
In the figurative part of her work, she combines elements of pre-existing mythologies, folklore and spirituality to create a hybrid vocabulary that explores the complexity of female figures. The characters are often inspired by fashion magazines, especially Italian Vogue, of which she is an avid collector.
Fajčíkova's second direction into the field of platform games aims to explore archetypal places, such as a ruin, a forest, a portal, etc. Each image becomes an individual level in a fictional game that the viewer can navigate visually. There is also a computer game available that uses the author's paintings, which closes the circle of digital and analog inspirations.
