Maja Jiranek
Maja Jiranek is a Serbian and German artist, living and working in Munich since 1984.
Jiranek first graduated from the Faculty of Philosophy at the University of Belgrade, specializing in ethnology, and then studied art design, art theory and art history at various schools and artists in Munich.
Maja Jiranek likes to work with symbols that give direction to her art. Her works in the "mix-media" style (combination of different painting materials) are mesmerizing. The artist creates abstract color spaces in which she repeatedly incorporates fragments of symbols, hieroglyphs and ornaments from past and foreign cultures and combines them with motifs inspired by the elements of nature.
