Marika Choma's Art is on virtual gallery display at Choma Gallery. Marika approaches each work with no plan or preconception whatsoever. Perhaps a remnant of a feeling, an energy, a part of a remembrance ... the subconscious? She begins with a blank paper or canvas, then a simple form, perhaps a circle, and go from there. Everything else follows quite naturally once she manages to get herself out of the way! All Marika's work is done in this manner. The work simply appears and reveals itself. There is no preconceived image. Marika's intention is to leave the exterior world of object-observation and rendering and enter the world beyond it: a world of pure energy, essence, archetype, symbology and myth. the universal, unseen world that holds us all and everything in its expanse. And she's sought the beauty and the joy in it. This has been Marika Choma's objective and focus from 1974 until the present.
