My work is about emergence.
In my art, I convey the sense of courage and difficulty of emergence of our own inner being. It is a universal desire, insofar as we show our talent, our true personality to the world. We are often double people, social and private.
I see the beauty in the world. I am inspired by the immense pleasure and sense of discovery resulting from the continuous observation around me.
I use photographic materials found in fashion magazines. The images of top models influence me especially with the pose, the gestures or the expressions of the face.
In my current paintings, I also explore images of famous people, often artists. For me, these people have discovered courage.
My paintings reflect the meaning of beauty, resilience and, despite the difficulties, peace.

The inner images and bold colours Joanna Glazer incorporates in her work convey a sense of abundance, total immersion into life and optimism. In her paintings, she creates a space of beauty and paradise in the way that shows resilience and strength regardless of circumstances. Each painting is like a poem…, a life affirming experience.

All her work is also about sense of identity, search for it and hints as to where to find it. She finds her sources in fashion magazines, newspapers, books, art reviews, and advertising. Even a simple image in an everyday newspapers may awaken emotion.
