Ana Lenhartova
The art of marquetry in village idyll
Ana Lenhart is an artist recognisable for her unique technique of marquetry that she does with exceptional skill and with ease. As the only member of the gallery of naïve art that uses veneer for the production of her compositions, she creates scenes of village idyll where nature and native areas in quiet moments of life revive through carefully stacked layers of wood. Her paintings of warm colour and simple symbolism bring a peaceful atmosphere, making the veneer not only a material but a story of pastimes and everyday beauty.
