Majka Tkáčiková (based in Barcelona, Spain) grew up in Slovakia in a calm rural environment that allowed her to develop a strong sensibility toward beauty, resulting in her deep interest in art. She explores ceramic sculpture as an extension of her own body in order to process her emotions. She's interested in a creative process that evolves within the wordless language of touch. Her sculptural works are organic, bodily forms that confront the viewer, asking to be touched, inviting a sensorial interaction through their shapes
She channels her internal affective processes creating anthropomorphic abstraction, like figures abstracted into a deeper sensation, as if taking the form of an internal, emotional truth. As hand-made bodies, they ground us, connecting us to an earthly, bodily sensation in opposition to the flatness of digital spaces. She allows the sculpture to evolve organically, to flow through her touch without a set plan, instead following an expression of a unique feeling with each one.

When exhibiting her work, it was always allowed to touch them. She observed the playfulness, joy, and curiosity of the public crossing the invisible boundaries set in conventional gallery spaces which motivated her to explore further the idea. Majka creates objects designed to hold human contact and hug, a space where the visitor is invited to feel and lean on the sculpture in a case of necessity.

Eventually, she would like to bring these carefully designed sculptures, which Majka believes can deepen levels of human and emotional experience, into the public space.
