“Since time immemorial, humans have used nature. At a certain point, however,
they began to extract too much from it. The age-old cycle of circulating nutrients
was disrupted. Those who realized their sins decided to sacrifice themselves.
Nature will reclaim what belongs to it from those who remain.”
(From Eva Jaroňová‘s text “Hopeless Prospects”)

„Eva Jaroňová’s exhibition of drawings and prints presents scenes full of black humor and sarcastic commentaries on contemporary times. This selection of older and newer works, portraying scenes as morbid as they are humorous, is situated in a setting staged by the architect duo Heinich & Stibitz.The architectural design divides the space into three areas, each of which complement the individual pieces of Eva‘s work.“

„In Eva Jaroňová’s illustrations, the message is conveyed by catchy black humour; often drastic scenes of torture, death or sensual pleasure (which we don’t necessarily take as the opposite). A contrasting watercolour delicacy accompanies the artist’s revealing Freudian descent into the repressed layers of our imagery, into our frustrations, fears and desires, which is enhanced by the use of soft and flowing textile backgrounds. Motifs of mutually fertilizing plants, people watering garden beds with their own blood, or connecting orgiastically with vegetation, reveal beneath the sexual themes a narrative of the coexistence of man and nature, or more specifically, a very current effort to expand the traditionally perceived notion of being beyond humanoid appearance and structure of thought. „
