Emöke Vargová

Emöke Vargová

Born July 29 1965, Dunajská Streda

Graduate of the Academy of Arts and Design in Bratislava, where she studied under Rudolf Fila. After studying painting, her interest turned increasingly to objects and installations utilising experimental approaches and non-traditional materials. The work of Emőke Vargová defies standard art categories and moves between various media. She is a solitary artist who shifts and elevates objects and experiences from everyday life into an imaginary/artistic world. She can be ranked among artists who, in the words of Rudolf Fila, manifest femininity through their creativity without militant feminism.
