Buenos Chairs

„Marija Koruga's painting transports us to those irrational spheres, cracks between dreams and wakefulness, reality and fantasy, where the world looks seemingly naive and in tune with nature. With her mastery of different techniques, Marija affirms herself as an intriguing author, with a strong sense for creating an atmosphere as the main carrier of the painting. Although her symbolic motifs find their origin in nature, on the paintings they are transformed into segues into discovering a  most versatile range of associations, somewhere bizarre, somewhere humorous. And precisely in this multifaceted anticipation of meanings strengthened by the suggestive atmosphere lies the richness of painting of this prospective young author.“
