S izrazitom lakoćom Marija Koruga svoj je slikarski i crtački poriv i temperament prometnula u materijalnu i haptičku dimenziju, stvarajući ciklus od šest koloristički bogato razrađenih i iznimno komunikativnih apstraktnih djela. Strukture kružnih objekata, njihovih caklastih površina, animiranih raznolikim intervencijama, određene su unutarnjom logikom, koja uspostavlja posve različite, a opet, unutar cjeline ciklusa, dosljedne kompozicije. Pojedini se radovi baziraju na kolorističkoj kondenzaciji, monokromizaciji ploha; drugi se, pak rastvaraju u ritmičnim i dinamičnim odnosima, koje autorica gradi na sebi svojstven način poigravanja s varijabilnim mogućnostima preklapanja planova slike, koja se iz druge prometnula u treću dimenziju. Preklapanje postiže prozračnim prijelazima, naglašenim akcentuiranjem i kontrastiranjem, i drugim likovnim postupcima. Frekvencijama boja i pridruženim zahvatima u materiji, ove osjetilne slike izazivaju kod promatrača upečatljivi slijed prizivanja asocijacija, poistovjećivanja. Osvještava se i autoričina potreba da dokine granicu između sebe, publike i djela. Dokidanje se djelomično ostvaruje

u efektu zrcaljenja okoline na površini djela, koji mami pažnju svojom karnalnom ili organičkom materičnošću. Upravo se u ovom segmentu potvrđuje eksperimentalni potencijal Marijina bavljenja materijalom, epoksijem, koji je prijemčiv za refleksije svjetlosti, aktivatora percepcije svega što postoji, i čije se postojanje također potvrđuje u interakciji s predmetom, tijelom... Jednako kao što se egzistencija umjetničkoga predmeta ostvaruje u interkaciji s njegovim promatračem i tumačem. Spomenuta tema preklapanja je posebno indikativna, jer se po tom principu i sami objekti preklapaju, odnosno nastavljaju jedan na drugi, a i promatrač je potaknut na iskustveno i fizičko preklapanje, odnosno dodirivanje djela. Time se dokida sankrosantni status izloženoga rada, točnije naglasak se stavlja upravo na činjenicu njegove izloženosti, baš kao što i njegovi svjedoci osvjedočuju vlastitu izloženost u različitim poretcima zbiljske, fizičke, emotivne, virtualne i mnogih drugih stvarnosti.

With distinct lightness, Marija Koruga transformed her painting and drawing impulse and temperament into a material and haptic dimension, creating a series of six highly communicative abstract works rich in colour. The structures of circular objects, their glimmer surfaces, animated with various interventions, are defined by an internal logic, which sets a completely different, yet, within the whole series, consistent compositions. Individual works are based on colouristic reduction, monochromization of surfaces; the others, in turn, dissolve in rhythmical and dynamic relations, which the artist builds in her own way by playing with variable possibilities of overlapping in the painting that transformed from second to third dimension. She achieves this overlapping with airy transitions, emphasized accentuation and contrasting and other artistic methods. With colour frequencies and associated interventions in the matter, these sensory images evoke in the viewer an impressive sequence of eliciting associations, identification. The artist’s need to eliminate the border between herself, the audience and the work also becomes

prominent. This elimination is partly achieved by mirroring the environment on the surface of the work, which attracts attention with its carnal or organic materialness. Precisely this segment witnesses the experimental potential of Marija’s dealing with the material, epoxy, which is susceptible to the reflections of light, an activator of perception of everything there is, and whose existence is also confirmed in the interaction with the object, body… Just as the existence of an art object is based on the interaction with its viewer and interpreter. The mentioned topic of overlapping is especially indicative, because based on this principle the objects also overlap, that is, build upon each other, and the viewer is also encouraged to experiential and physical overlapping, i.e. to touch the work. This eliminates the sacrosanct status of the exhibited work, more precisely, the emphasis is put on its exposure, just like its witnesses witness their own exposure in different orders of real, physical, emotional, virtual and many other realities.
