Artistic production of Ana Krleza uses and analyses two incongruously disimilar media. First and foremost, there was photography. After having painted with light, Ana commenced with rice paper, using it in a complex combination of various kinds of paint and applications. By the means of crushing, kasiranje (the process of dipping paper into glue and arranging it in many layers), and painting of paper on a hard surface, a genuine atmosphere of an old piece of art is invoked. Sometimes realistic, sometimes stylized, the paintings od these ships are firmly linked with their authentic historical counterparts.Thus, the name given to the exhibition itself - 'Naves Nostrum', is a geographically located segment of Croatian history.
The ships brought to us by Ana are not so volatile in their realization and techical aspect, as the scale of colours they use is distinct in a way that opens an interesting and dinamic game. In an almost ascetic repetition of theme and motives, we can read out a very subtle, yet convincing aesthetic game.Harmony of details interpolated on a static motif both puzzles and fills us with wonder; the motif which, nonetheless, does not lack the wind in its sails.
Artistic shape of Ana Krleza's works is, above all, a consequence of a poetically moved female soul, looking for a dream within the given framework of the world of facts.
