On Tuesday evening at the Platforma 15 gallery in Prague, Czech artist Renata Machýčková will debut her first show in 10 years in her native country. The exhibition titled “Blades on Heels” showcases her paintings as well as paper carvings that she has used to capture the diversity of the female form.

Renata Machýčková, who is from Moravia, has been living and working in Bergamo, Italy for nearly a decade.

Her new exhibition of work will be her first show on Czech soil in 10 years, since she was a graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague, where she studied in the painting studios of Czech artists Vladimír Skrepl and Jiří Kovanda.
