Katarína Alexy Figerová is Slovak visual artist with extensive experience in exhibitions both at home and abroad, as well as several architectural realizations. Her primary means of expression is undoubtedly abstraction, which she combines with the expressiveness of her painting style.
A Slovak visual artist with extensive experience in exhibitions both at home and abroad, as well as several architectural realizations. Her primary means of expression is undoubtedly abstraction, which she combines with the expressiveness of her painting style. She applies the same approach to her sculptural work, where she primarily works with bronze and iron—often using scrap materials that would otherwise be melted down. However, she sees the potential to transform them into unique artworks that find their place in both interior and exterior spaces.
Her dedication, relentless drive to explore new forms of expression, and continuous self-development place her among the most significant contemporary artists. She is one of the few women—perhaps even the only one—who has been given the opportunity by a renowned automobile company to create a large relief painting of one of the most luxurious cars. This project further demonstrates that Katarína Alexy Figerová possesses not only courage but also exceptional artistic skill in assemblage and abstract expression.

Robin S. Sharma uttered some interesting words: “Once you learn to control your mind, thoughts and emotions, you are in control of your whole life. And once you control your whole life, you control your own destiny.”
These words, even if it does not seem so, can also be applied to the choice of motifs in the painting work of Katarína Alexy Fígerová. I quote it because in her reflection she said: “Do what you love and not what others would have you do. If it’s from the heart, it’s the right way. Be good to yourself, don’t punish yourself, others will do that for you.” In her works, it is the meaning of these two quotes that I believe, as I have had the opportunity to know and meet Kate, materializes into colors. These evoke whole fireworks of associations in her individual works.
It is interesting that in paintings it is a very emotional interpretation of one’s own thoughts, knowledge and experiences, in sculpture it is rational, in as semblages and collages it is humorous.
Distinguished Slovak artist whose vibrant and expressive paintings have been widely exhibited both in Slovakia and internationally.
Her work, characterized by rich color palettes and emotional depth, has earned her recognition in private and institutional collections worldwide.
