Statement
Frida Baranek’s practice is driven by exploration and will to subvert materials used by industries. With a background as an architect and industrial designer, the structure of materials are kept intact allowing her to deconstruct to then construct. Baranek has used accumulations of continued lines, generally curved, to express life’s entanglement, the interlace of art and life. These sometimes elegant or dense lines, drawn in space, are an expression of her memories, ideas, feelings or history.
