HIDDEN Podcast: Dorka Hlinková on Memory, Friendship & the Magic of Everyday Life

HIDDEN podcast

The dynamic duo of gallerist Filip Kartousek and curator Kamil Princ brings you a deep but unconventional insight into contemporary fine art, whether of well-renowned authors or outstanding young talents from art academies. The personal interviews combine complex esthetic and philosophical topics with relaxed humor and non-conformist reveal of the secret sides of the author’s life and thoughts.
Podcasts are held in Czech or English language.

In the new episode of the HIDDEN Podcast, we meet painter Dorka Hlinková, whose solo exhibition Čury Mury Fuk brings together scenes drawn almost entirely from her own experiences. Rather than inventing imaginary worlds, Hlinková describes herself as a collector of moments, gathering fragments of everyday life, journeys, friendships, encounters and strange situations and transforming them into paintings.We talk about her earlier utopian landscapes and the shift towards painting lived experience, as well as the idea of home as something created by people rather than a particular place. Hlinková speaks about travelling alone through Europe, sleeping on a cemetery in Spain, encountering fire, animals and moments of vulnerability, and the way these experiences gradually become material for her paintings. She also explains why she deliberately leaves out information, allowing her images to remain open and slightly uncertain.The conversation moves between the intimate and the absurd, from nudity and bodily functions to death, friendship and the relationship between humans and nature. Hlinková also talks about her painting process, her use of tempera and thin oil glazes, her plans to explore found materials and other media, and the challenge of turning personal memories into images that can still speak to people who were never there.
