Figuratively Articulated Argument

„Digital image is not traditional. The material track isn´t recorded on a medium like in painting when a paint is applied on a canvass or when an image is recorded on a sensitive to light layer of a negative in analogue photography. A digital image can be partly or even completely deficient of this material track. It creates a sequence of abstract values. The sequence of abstract values is independent of its medium, pictured reality and the presence of the imaged object. The image in a digital form is randomly changeable. Without subsequent losses caused by transmission or manipulation. In processing of such image appears, in the words of Timothy Binkley „freedom of endless forgiveness“. It means that all changes can be retracted without consequences to the definitive result.“

Figuratively Articulated Argument
Kateřina Komm's artistic work to date clearly reveals her intention to layer, compose, and continuously transform countless images, texts, and records of events, inspiring experiences, and impressions from various places, times, and spaces. The author's reflections on vividly resonant moments open up space for further associative ideas, which form richly branched lines of meaning in the resulting sculptures, objects, drawings, and installations. Some of the works were created based on inspiration from a specific object, work of art, or architecture, while others may be a direct imprint of a found object, or even a magical experience of a symbolic nature.
