Working in the pre-dawn hours between four and seven o’clock, Anna Zemánková found solace in art, creating floral and botanical drawings that served as a brief respite from the duties of her regular life. It was during these hours of solitude that she created, as she said, “I am growing flowers that are not grown anywhere else.”

Commentary
Zemánková's work at first seems strictly representational of different botanical objects and materials, i.e., plants, flowers, natural elements. However, looking into it more, it becomes more and more abstract and transports me into a spiritual or intangible place. The more look at it, the more I lose focus and grip on reality. It becomes hazy and my eyes blur.
