Biography

Pavla Parik finished a master's degree in art and architecture. After several years of architectural practice, she fully concentrated on her artwork. In her work she has focused on several main topics - Israeli landscape, environmental topics, semi abstract paintings inspired by Israeli archeology and portraits. Pavla has had several solo exhibitions in Israel. She has also participated in group exhibitions. Her paintings are in many private collections in Israel and Europe.

"To me painting is a bridge between reality and my soul; it is a way to communicate without words. Emotions are an essential part of my creative work. Some of my paintings are realistic, some semi abstract. The ability to balance between styles allows me to capture the essence of more subjects. Usually, I use acrylic paints on my large-scale paintings, occasionally I also use oil paints, especially when depicting atmospheric phenomena in landscape paintings.”
