Barbora Lepsi has created a series of monumental abstract paintings for the HYB4
Gallery exhibition space, works that directly respond to the venue and consistently develop her long-term theme of abstract expression.
The resulting artworks are grounded in a confident gestural expression, spontaneity, and a precise sensitivity to composition and color. The presentation is an integral part of the work—deliberate, exact, and enhancing the power and monumentality of each painting. Rhythm, speed, and the physical trace of the painting act are key to Lepsi’s practice. What emerges is a visual language that is deeply personal, yet openly communicative.
Barbora Lepsi’s works have the ability to immediately capture attention, even though they do not stem from a specific narrative.
They embody depth, authenticity, and permanence— qualities that meet the high standards of contemporary art.
The artist currently lives and works in Berlin—a city that provides her with intense stimulation, while also demanding perseverance and inner conviction. This exhibition is a testament to her focused approach and creative strength.
The large-scale site-specific installation at the HYB4 Gallery allows her works to fully shine—in their physical generosity, emotional urgency, and painterly quality.
