Mila Veljac'a's varied work includes oil paintings on canvas and on paper. Her focus is on painting, which reveals a predilection for figurative and abstract elements. Mila Veljac'a's complex and mysterious pictorial worlds lie somewhere between reality and fiction, the possible and the impossible.
In her works, the Artist initiates a dialogue about modern man, his environment and human relations. The result is scenes full of suggestive power that emotionally involve the viewer. For some years now, Mila has been working on natural linen as a painting medium. In many of her paintings, she leaves the material exposed and dissolves the pictorial surfaces. The process of destruction is thus an elementary component of her work. The different planes that appear on the surface develop an extraordinary three-dimensionality.
