Ludmila Pawlowska’s three-dimensional surface structure of her artwork is fascinating. The combination of various materials – wax, metal, paper and glass amongst others – creates a radiant disposition. Surrounded by a secret aura are those paintings, which the artist calls ‘The Face I’m Looking At’ or “Letter to You”. With a few lines and various shades, the indication of a human face is reduced, leaving ample room for an individual interpretation.

For me the meeting with Ludmila’s art world has been an entirely new art experience. Ludmila is obsessed with light, and she sees her three-dimensional paintings as an arena in which it may perform. She creates the feeling of movement and light with a unified fluidity that resonates energy beyond the initial impact. An unique style of work with a timeless beauty is born.

Intense colour compositions and a special choice of materials form the base of Ludmila’s successful works of art. She can interpret subjects in her own way and so she shows her talent and character.

Her motifs are figurative, abstract or lyric abstract renderings of existential and religious themes. Using a wide plethora of colours, ranging from dark drama to the poetry of spherical light and ease, she consistently express herself with high artistic precision and a remarkably concrete sensuality.

The works of Ludmila have intriguing experimental and explorative qualities. Sometimes their inspiration can be traced to icon art and calligraphy, but ultimately her works find inspiration in nature itself and the human soul.
Hans Tapper, Galleri Tapper-Popermajer/Malmö, Sweden
What is exciting about Ludmila’s unique vision and painting is the use of image and esoteric materials to such an elegant finish. She employs fossils, precious and semi-precious minerals and metals with a thick and thin texture of various kinds of paint. The results applied to plywood boxes are like relief sculpture and often bring to mind the icons of her former land. She is a very fecund and prolific artist.
Harold Rubin, art critic/London
We are facinated by Ludmila´s art; its abstract expression, strong colours and the very fine colours combination. Ludmila is doing also some other interesting things; she mix oil/acrylic colours with different materials particularly stone elements on a special designed wood panel. It is essential for us that art is demanding also something from the viewer, which we mean her work does. There is always something new in ger works and give new dimentions in the art. This makes her work very unique; there is no other artist as we know who makes a similar art.
Hege and Roar Nielsen, art collectors/Oslo
Ludmila makes Art in which femininity, religion, dramatic expression and esthetic beautifully come to harmony. Her unique artistic techniques stimulate the viewer to look beyond the two-dimensional surface and experience the abstract tone of the individual brush stroke. Her generally dark tonalities set her apart from the sun-filled color of most of the Impressionists, with whom she otherwise shares important quality affinities.
Lena Grafström Galleri 17- Lidingö Konsthall/Stockholm
Ludmila is a great poet of secret and inner image. She creates the feeling of movement and light with a unified fluidity that resonates energy beyond the initial impact. The three dimensional paintings in this exhibition “Made in Scandinavia” define specific places and times in life allowing the viewer to become immersed and absorbed within an Art with capital A.
