Olga Suchanova is a Slovakian emerging visual artist and curator, living and working in London. Through her journeys she is inspired by the nature, properties of matter and energy; and quantum mysticism, which are translated into the light, colour, pattern and form with the use of experimental photography, printmaking and painting. In her work she is questioning the concept of space, time, illusion and reality.
