Tanya Balach

Her paintings have emphasized suggestiveness, they stimulate the sensibility and it is them where I can see their femininity, (I mean their attractiveness), their sensible seductiveness, their illumination, something hypnotic and hyperionic that is present in them.

The painting of Tanja Balach is transformed in shapes of colors that break the darkness.

She remains faithful to the easel painting, expressing her nostalgia for the best achievements in the local area, as if she wants to stop that painting with the strength of her talent.

It is a coloring and meditative abundance which also makes impression in various adventurous aspects, her painting offering to us in its poetic colors as well as in its dramatic voltage and expressed contemplation, but also with the inside dynamics and complete feeling of monumentality and toughness.

Her paintings are a result of the continuous faith in the art of painting as the possibility for construction of a new reality no matter whether it would be abstract or figurative, that new reality gains equal ontological status as the reality around us does. At last, the thought that hereby imposes is that the pleasure from creation when painting is the leading motivation in the paintings of Tanja Balach.

Her paintings turn you down with their uniqueness, with their original idea and the three-dimensional space; they attract you with the harmony of colors and become lively in front of your eyes.

The testimony through color and shape – through paintings, the offered view upon Balach has always been without any delay, not a hint of any mistrust in her revealing and opening, without any (self) censure.
I am speaking about a complex and deeply authentic author, exciting enough to seduce you and involve you in a world she creates – world of unrest and tranquility which dwell side by side in their spiral simultaneousness.

Cite International Des Art, Paris, 2004 , Katerina Kolozova, D.Sc. of Phylosophy

Her quality of painting, her readiness to scarify the visual creation and her self-placement on new roads, the beauty of her exposed paintings – gave the audience conviction about the talent and skills of Tanja Balach.

Beside Solomon, Balach also knows the language of birds, and to us, who cannot understand it, through stratified painting structure filled with metaphors, she transmits the wealth of emotional contents in an original way.
