Born 1975, Vienna-based artist Juliana Do is an abstract painter who explores the boundary between controlled painting and free experimentation. Her high-frequency paintings, distinguished by their endless colour combinations and layers of dots, lines and stains, are a dialogue between space and light. She creates the blank spaces in her pieces using a principle of light, which she defines as an 'optical escape from the second dimension'.
Julianna Do's Early Career and Style
Juliana studied at the University of Industrial and Applied Arts, Linz, Austria and the Academy of Fine Arts, Vienna, Austria, under Professor Franz Graf. She also became an art teacher at the National Academy of Arts in Sofia, Bulgaria. Her oil paintings, esteemed for their marrying of mind and material, have limitless potential; as the mind is boundless, so are the developments of her intuitive paintings.
