Lucie Svoboda understands something about her audience that many artists fail to realize. Svoboda understands that her fans want to know her process. Her followers crave to know what goes on in the background behind each of her work. Many other artists simply put work out there and explain nothing, professing that “it’s open for interpretation.” There’s something nice about that, but Svoboda feels so passionately about her work that she loves bringing her audience in a little bit closer—and they love her for that.
The Czech abstract artist, who has work exhibited in cities such as Barcelona, Milano, Paris, London, Madrid, and Prague, often talks deeply about her work, and offers insightful ideas to her followers. For instance, she may say something like “listen to the voice of the painting”, or compare a release of her painting to a child exiting a womb.
These ideas that Svoboda shares shouldn’t be taken for granted. It’s rare to have an artist who thinks about her work on such a deep level, or at least is willing to open up and talk about it. This is one of the reasons she’s been able to separate herself from the pack in such a competitive industry.
If you don’t believe us, perhaps her 106,000 plus followers will explain it better to you. If you follow suit and become part of her fandom, you’ll likely fall in love with her words as much as her art.
