Through plastic painting, Mona Broschár stylizes banal everyday objects and situations into highly artificial, desirable and sexualized objects. Harmonious and gloomy come in pairs in the scaled-up images that Broschár develops, as they depict a tipping moment, informed by our dazzling consumer, and pop culture. Her paintings are meant to invite virtual
consumption, but leave the viewers alone with their desires, since touch is only allowed with the imagination. In this way, the artist addresses the interplay of touch and distance – which has always been indissoluble, not only since digital culture, but specially in painting.
Mona Broschár (born in 1985, Bad Säckingen, Germany) is a painter based in Leipzig, Germany. She studied Fine Art at the Camberwell College of Arts, London and holds a MA in Painting and Printmaking from the Academy of Visual Arts, Leipzig.
