Mirella Stern - Now or Never
Description
"Theater is humanity’s greatest mystery. The logic of the stage, the audience, and the backstage wonderfully mirrors the twists and turns of our fate. Mirella Stern incorporates the enigmatic theme of theatrum mundi in her work.
Now or Never! from 2019 portrays an allegory of childhood efforts to assert individuality. Rhythmic, disciplined ballerinas must face a joyful troublemaker who bursts onto the stage accompanied by an aquamarine plush toy and a pink bunny. This exceptional piece captivates the viewer’s gaze for a long time.
"Now or Never!" by Mirella Stern is a limited-edition fine art print, created in a closed series of 50 pieces. Each print is hand-signed by the artist and comes with a unique edition number."
Mirella Stern was born in 1971. She graduated from the Faculty of Arts at the Pedagogical University in Kraków, earning her diploma in 2005 under the guidance of Dr. Aleksander Pieńko. She has participated in numerous group exhibitions across Poland. Currently, she combines her individual painting practice with set design. Her fascination with the "theatricality" of life is reflected in her work, which often features distinctive depictions of wooden puppet characters.
