_ ABOUT ME _
OLIVERA CAVRIĆ _
Hi, I’m Olivera, a painter and graphic designer – (mag. art) with a degree from the Faculty of Fine Arts in Skopje, graduated painting in a class. of prof. Dušan Perčinkov in 2003. I was born in Skopje in 1978. and today I live and work in Zagreb. Member of HDLU – Croatian Association of Visual Artists.
IN MY WORK _
I use classical painting and digital graphic techniques. Acrylic and dry pastel combined with photography, text and stamp transfer (Xerox) technique.
The main focus in my work is the challenges of individuals in modern society, more precisely the influence of the rational versus the intuitive. Sometimes I use repetition in the form of a mantra that can occupy our minds with the belief that in this way we can step out of our rational maze. The mantra can be a simple countdown or a text message, direct, which aims to encourage or stimulate action. Sometimes it is enough to just admit that everything is ok and find peace and contentment in yourself. My work aims to represent universal happiness and beauty.
