"My work is rooted in emotion, intuition and color. Through abstraction, I explore feelings and experiences that are often difficult to put into words.
My process moves between spontaneity and intention. I build, erase, layer and respond to what happens on the canvas, allowing the painting to develop gradually.
I want my paintings to leave space for the viewer — for their own memories, associations and emotions."
Lenta Markevich, born in 1983, is a visual artist based in Prague, Czechia. Raised in Central Asia, she moved to Czechia nearly two decades ago. After graduating from Charles University in Prague with a Bachelor’s degree in Liberal Arts, Lenta dedicated herself to her own artistic practice.
Initially working with classical art forms, she later turned to abstraction, finding in it a more natural way to express emotions and experiences beyond words.
Color and texture are central to her practice. Her paintings combine bold, expressive gestures with delicate details, layered surfaces, and areas of quiet space. This balance between spontaneity and restraint gives each work its own rhythm and allows for multiple interpretations.
Her artworks are held in private collections in Czechia, Germany, France, the Netherlands, Spain, China, Japan, the UK and the USA.
