Ula Gogol, a sculptor, focuses on the search
for biological structures within forms in her work. She creates cycles of
abstract works, often incorporating figurative elements.
The Polish artist describes her art as follows:
'My sculptures are the emotions that overwhelm me; the fears that arise;
experiences, sensations, and anxieties; my existence suspended between the
interior and exterior. The attempt to connect these two parallel worlds emerges
in new, often incompatible forms. The exterior both fascinates and attracts me,
as well as terrifies me, gathering fears and anxieties. That's why the ability
to enter the inner world is such a significant part of my life.'
The artist immerses herself in the temporal
existence, trying to clothe it in material forms. She seeks to come to terms
with the thought of what is inevitable, subject to destruction due to the
passage of time. She delves into the metaphor of existence, the cycle from
birth to death. The beginning and end sewn together by the bloodstream's red,
connecting fragments of life. She creates cycles of abstract works, often
incorporating figurative elements.
The sculptor pays special attention to the
materials she uses in her creations. She utilizes resins, combining them with
other materials such as textiles, wood, metal, and dyes. She also uses stone,
bronze, concrete, and fabrics.
Ula Gogol began her education at the
Jagiellonian University in Krakow, where she completed her studies in Art
History. She then continued her education at the Academy of Fine Arts in
Gdansk, where she obtained a degree in Sculpture.
After her studies, Gogol actively participated
in exhibitions in Warsaw, Gdansk, Sopot, and Krakow. She is a member of the
Association of Polish Visual Artists.
