Art Wednesday: Olga Zaremba SENSE

On October 30, within the Art-Wednesday project artist Olga Zaremba will open an exhibition titled Sense in IZONE creative community.

Project SENSE is about the study of our perception of the surrounding reality. In her works, Olga demonstrates an artistic interpretation of the objects we can find everywhere. By so, in all familiar objects, surroundings, architecture — she pays attention to the space deformations and while leveling them, encourages us to redefine the surrounding usual.

Creating her works, the artist refers to the concept of illusion of perception, as human perception is imperfect. Sometimes we might see visual images in the wrong way they really are — our brain builds distorted images of reality. It is able to create the appearance of what does not really exist and at the same time not notice the obvious. We can observe certain phenomenons without knowing they are impossible.

The artist wants to show how different we look and perceive the surrounding. This project begs the question — why do we think others should perceive the world as we do? How real is what we see around?
