The Miss Kot’átková
Eva Kot’átková
This master bedroom showcases the evocative works of Eva Koťátková, a renowned Czech artist known for giving form to the invisible forces of rules, conventions, and rituals. Her art explores the tension between the rigid structures of societal norms and the individuals attempting, often failing, to conform. Within the room, her pieces are complemented by works from Teodora Axente and Sylvie Auvray, creating a layered dialogue of themes and artistic perspectives.
Koťátková’s work delves into the absurdities of our struggle with normative systems such as governments, schools, and families. Using sculptures, drawings, collages, and performance, she visualizes the constraints of these systems through cage-like objects, tangled strings, and fragmented illustrations. Her surreal, darkly humorous, and poetic creations draw inspiration from Czech surrealism and absurdist literature. In this suite, a central piece—a box-like structure—invites exploration of private thoughts, dreams, and anxieties, offering a deeply reflective space that connects art with the struggles and aspirations of contemporary life.

Eva Kot’átková
Eva Koťátková takes as her central theme the individual’s relationship to normative social structures and institutions, such as governments, schools, or families. In her sculptures, performances, drawings, and collages she gives form to the invisible, disciplining force exerted by rules, conventions, and rituals: cage-like objects, acting as physical restraints for body parts, cut-out illustrations from medical textbooks, and images of people tangled up in strings are recurring motifs in her work.
Poetic, darkly humorous, and occasionally ominous, Koťátková counts Czech surrealism and absurdist literature among her sources of inspiration. Koťátková is struck by the peculiarly poor fit between the world of ideas, theories, rules and codes, and the people who must live with them, struggling to conform, to sit up straight, to follow lessons, abide by set principles. They are often trying, and failing, to break free, and the consequences may be strikingly absurd.
