Jaroslav Kyša

The artist disrupts functioning of gravity and perception of time by bringing attention to “short circuits” of reality and its understanding, and encourages questioning of general certitudes.
Jaroslav Kyša has exhibited work at Wumin Art Center, South Korea; Diana Lowenstein Fine Arts, Miami; and Trafó Galéria, Budapest, among others.
