The group exhibition at Galeria Studio in Warsaw elaborates on the theme of visions of the future of our planet and the humankind on several levels. It involves projects by a number of Czech, Polish and international artists. Rather than the courage to embark on unrestrained utopian plans, today’s visions of our future are accompanied by anxiety and black scenarios. There will inevitably be a future, even if it is one after the extinction of our species. But perhaps there are more promising prospects after all.

curator: Veronika Čechová / Entrance Gallery / Praha / 2022

„In
Eva Jaroňová's drawings and prins, all the classical dualities that
humankind has defined during its evolution are organically
intertwined: the natural versus the artificial, nature versus
technology, human versus other entities inhabiting the Earth, and the
male versus te female element. however, in the scenes depicted this
division is overcome and there is a symbiosis and close
interconnection of all of the above. The scenes are reminiscent of
references to fertility rituals, have a strong erotic charge and can
be perceived as a sort of 21st century paganism.“
(Veronika
Čechová, Tales from the Dark Forest)

"Eva
Jaroňová’s exhibition of drawings and prints presents scenes full
of black humor and sarcastic commentaries on contemporary times. This
selection of older and newer works, portraying scenes as morbid as
they are humorous, is situated in a setting staged by the architect
duo Heinich & Stibitz.The architectural design divides the space
into three areas, each of which complement the individual pieces of
Eva‘s work."
(Eva Riebová, Too Hot)

„In Eva Jaroňová's illustrations, the message is conveyed by catchy black humour; often drastic scenes of torture, death or sensual pleasure (which we don't necessarily take as the opposite). A contrasting watercolour delicacy accompanies the artist's revealing Freudian descent into the repressed layers of our imagery, into our frustrations, fears and desires, which is enhanced by the use of soft and flowing textile backgrounds. Motifs of mutually fertilizing plants, people watering garden beds with their own blood, or connecting orgiastically with vegetation, reveal beneath the sexual themes a narrative of the coexistence of man and nature, or more specifically, a very current effort to expand the traditionally perceived notion of being beyond humanoid appearance and structure of thought. „

(Petr Kovář, Myceliem)

Hopeless Prospects

aquarele, paper, gouache, 2019

“Since time immemorial, humans have used nature. At a certain point, however,
they began to extract too much from it. The age-old cycle of circulating nutrients
was disrupted. Those who realized their sins decided to sacrifice themselves.
Nature will reclaim what belongs to it from those who remain.”
(From Eva Jaroňová‘s text “Hopeless Prospects”)
