Nina
Čelhar

Born in 1990, Postojna (SI)
Lives and works in Ljubljana (SI)

Nina Čelhar (1990) completed her undergraduate and postgraduate studies in painting at the Academy of Fine Art and Design in Ljubljana, where she received the Academy Award for Special Study Achievements. For a year, she was perfecting her knowledge at the Hochschule für Grafik und Buchkunst in Leipzig. Through the medium of painting, she explores the experience of dwelling. Her works focus on the meaning of architecture as basic living environment, exploring how it dictates our everyday lives and movements, in a way controlling and directing our very existence. Using limited palette, subtle and fragile technique, her paintings emit tranquil and elusive feel, steering the viewer into a psychological space, stripped of all tangible distractions. Nina Čelhar regularly presents her work in independent and group exhibitions at home and abroad. Her work is included in such collections as Albertina – ESSL and Riko.
