Michaela Seifertova is a young designer able to stretch her
talents over several of the many convolutions of material expression. Drawing
beyond the lines of conventionality she presents us with her vision of the
future. It is here that we become witnesses to a new dimension in the
challenges of manifesting fine, artistic design, creativity and spiritual
interpretation.
The work of Michaela Seifertova displays a realization of
humanity’s subconscious being from the perspective of a witness to the human
aura; the energy field held to emanate from a living source. Her strong
motivational sense and inspiration can be attributed to a deep interest and
knowledge in psychological astrology and the desire to convey sensuality from
her own heart. These convictions inspire her to examine social variances
between the lives of human beings, while working ambitiously to instill harmony
within those touched by her form of art. This type of empathy she portrays in
the material form of paintings, clothing, jewelry, artistic fashion accessories
and finally, custom designed glass installations for modern interiors and
private commissions. Her work is dedicated to inspire both public and private
interiors across the world.
Gallery Art Trans exhibits Seifertova paintings completed in
the years 2003 and 2004. She initially realized these designs according to
visions experienced in connection with a personal awareness of her subconscious
being; a presence correlative to the true personality of the self. Her works
depict not only an aesthetic representation of the ‘heart’ but also hold the
inherited ability to communicate through the technical use of archetypal
symbolism that lies beneath the compositional surface of each painting;
sub-levels of paint signifying the unconscious of every individual.
Constructive and dynamic on many levels, she also derives strength from
semi-precious stones which are collected over the course of her travels and
placed over the conclusive level of several of her works.
Seifertova has been exploring spiritual conceptions for
several years creating stimulating depictions of her visions as well as, on
many occasions, sacred paintings for people according to their aura as she is
sensitive to the needs of their energetic force. Throughout this time she has
been continuously acclaimed across the span of a broad audience for her
dedication to modern design.
Her most recent initiative signifies a new cycle consisting of
108 paintings which she began production of this year 2004. The first phase is
constructed of 12 paintings, each one representing the psychological aspects of
the Zodiac; twelve integral aspects make up the entirety of the larger
structure; the circle of perfection.
The first cycle was exhibited and sold at Mestske Cast(City
Hall) in Prague 3 in February/March 2004 at an exhibition titled ‘Hvezdy v
Obrazech (Stars in Painting).’ However in the endeavor to satisfy the
further interests of local and internationally recognized patrons, similar
reproductions of her earlier works have been created.
~ The creation of a new entity means
to harness and materialize the energy of apparent recollection and present a
painting that perpetuates the intimacy of its predecessor.
If an individual viewer senses an attraction to a particular
painting, a new piece can be created upon the acquisition of client
specifications. Michaela requires the date of birth and/or a personal
photograph for the construction of a piece complimentary to their energy field
that carries the potential to strengthen their aura in harmonization with their
body. Furthermore, if desired, her paintings can also be created and displayed
in the interiors of public institutions, offices and the personal home
environment.
Michaela currently works as a fashion designer in Prague,
Czech Republic. Over the course of 2003, she concentrated her efforts on
painting, jewelry and accessory design. Her clothing design involves customary
work with the entire human being as her deep sensitivity for people enables her
to realize the aesthetic beauty within the use of a variety of colors in
consideration of their aura. The outcome reflects her interpretation of the
deep psychological aspects of the human culture.
