Maja Maljević (b.1973) is an expressionist painter and printmaker combining organic and geometric shapes to seek harmony in disparate ideas. Motivated by the physicality of making art, she has a bright and organized style. Maljević explores the dynamism of positive and negative space and uses color value to convey her sentiments. Her process always begins with breaking up the starkness of the blank canvas or page. In a move that can be viewed as “dirtying” the page, Maljević adds a layer of bright colour. From here, she can then let her intuition take over, filling the page with colours, shapes and lines, as well as drips, blocks, bands and waves. For her, movement is as important to her method as the initial step of “dirtying”, this results in dynamic and engaging works. Maljević’s art is a visual symphony of figurative and abstract, organic and geometric, obvious and elusive elements. Through her works, she aims to create a visual language that resonates with the viewer, much like music communicates emotion through sound.
