Zdenka Mendez is a Queensland based Visual Artist and Surface Designer who seeks to understand and convey the beauty and timelessness of classical art into today’s modern world. 

 

Zdenka’s latest art collection is inspired by her love of traditional art and architecture, leading her to further investigate "How to bring ancient art into a modern world."  Through this interplay of “old and new” she arrives at a harmoniously balanced body of work which easily complements today's modern aesthetic.

 

Her earlier artwork was motivated by the beauty of Queensland's tropical habitat and stunning coastal landscape. Capturing its beauty and intrinsic organic patterns through photography, she witnesses the miracle of nature as art emerges. Through exploration of this natural encounter her unique artistic creativity is expressed through her botanical and coastal collection of drawings and water colour paintings. Zdenka has utilised her original artwork to create beautiful textiles patterns. 

 

Zdenka's love of creativity began at the young age of eleven, teaching herself to sew and design clothes. She completed her Diploma of Visual Art and Surface Design at the Australian Institute of Creative Design and has a desire to study at an Atelier Art Studio and expand into the areas of printmaking and graphic design.

 

Her passion is to inspire others to see truth in beautiful art and for its essence to become imbued in their hearts and minds.

"I know that once our senses are nourished by the seeing of true beauty,

it shall once again become commonplace and our lives will be

forever enriched in this modern world.”
