Clio’s Art Collection – Donna Czapiga
Donna Czapiga makes paintings that attempt to choreograph a collision between the orchestrated and the unintended. Taking cues from art history and decorative motifs from both high and low culture, she recombines the imagery into a painterly context taking interpretive liberties along the way, reflecting a movement of construction/deconstruction, generation/regeneration, and definition/redefinition.
She lives and works in Philadelphia.
