About
In her practice, Eva Fajčíková (1990,) explores chaos, subversion, and entropy as forces shaping the fragile link between woman and nature. She is drawn to thresholds — spaces where identities blur and the Other emerges as both mirror and mystery.
Influenced by the ecofeminist and multispecies theories of Donna Haraway, Susan Griffin, and others, as well as Catherine Keller’s constructive theology, the artist seeks to dissolve the boundaries between the human and the non-human, the body and the wilderness, the visible and the invisible.
Her work unfolds as a series of visual and sensory rituals — paintings, olfactory installations, and assemblages in which mythology, folklore, and spirituality coalesce into a personal cosmology. Female archetypes appear as carriers of memory, silence, and transformation.
Each project begins with research and material inquiry, unfolding through intuitive processes. She works with oils, dried mushrooms, acacia thorns, and synthetic scent molecules — materials that resist full control and point to cycles of decay, renewal, and permeability. Through scent and matter, the work engages the body directly, producing encounters that operate beyond language and bring the sacred and the visceral into close proximity.
