“Rebeka Golob - Dia je rojena 13. 12. 1989 v Mariboru, je akademska slikarka in vizualna umetnica. Po končani Škofijski gimnaziji Antona Martina Slomška v Mariboru je leta 2009 svoje šolanje nadaljevala na Akademiji za likovno umetnost in oblikovanje v Ljubljani, kjer je v letu 2012 diplomirala iz industrijskega oblikovanja. Izobraževanje je nadaljevala s študijem slikarstva, prav tako na ALUO, in pri profesorju Bojanu Gorencu diplomirala leta 2016 in magistrirala 2020. V času študija je v letu 2016 svoje znanje nadgrajevala tudi na izmenjavah v tujini, na fakulteti v Winchestru (VB) in na fakulteti v Lizboni. Leta 2017 se je s svojim diplomskim delom The Universe predstavila na THE ARTBOX.PROJECT Basel 1.0 v Švici. V zadnjem času izrisuje tattoo dizajne in tetovira. Živi in ustvarja v okolici Maribora.

Rebeka Golob uporablja kolaž kot osnovno skico za raziskovanje in ustvarjanje nove dinamike v kompoziciji, ozadju in formi. Svoje ugotovitve nato prenaša tudi v drugih svojih delih, v video umetnosti in pri pisanju.

Navdih črpa predvsem iz mitov in pravljic, posledično je v njenih delih določeno razmerje med pripovedjo in formo. Prav tako raziskuje povezavo med umetniškim procesom, sodobnim potrošništvom in globalizacijo, ki ji omogoča delo z materiali z celega sveta – s to povezavo želi mite prestrukturirati v sodobno vizualno pripoved.

“Rebeka Golob - Dia, born on 13 December 1989 in Maribor, is an academic painter and visual artist. After graduating from the Anton Martin Slomšek Diocesan Gymnasium in Maribor, in 2009 she continued her education at the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Ljubljana, where she graduated in 2012 in industrial design.

In 2017, she presented her thesis The Universe at THE ARTBOX.PROJECT Basel 1.0 in Switzerland. Lately she has been drawing tattoo designs and tattooing. She lives and works in the vicinity of Maribor.

Rebeka Golob uses collage as a basic sketch to explore and create new dynamics in composition, background and in form. She then transmits her findings in her other works, in video art and in writing.

She draws inspiration mainly from myths and fairy tales, as a result of which a certain relationship between narrative and form is determined in her works. She also explores the connection between the artistic process, contemporary consumerism and globalization, which allows her to work with materials from around the world - with this connection she wants to restructure myths into a contemporary visual narrative.

“Kot pritiče trenutnim razmeram sva z Rebeko tokratni pogovor opravili kar virtualno.

Rebeka je v tem pogovoru povedala nekaj več o svojem ustvarjanju, zakaj jo pri umetniškem delu spremlja mitologija, s čim se ukvarja v zadnjem času, kako vidi umetniško sceno v Sloveniji in Mariboru in kaj najbolj pogreša med samoizolacijo ter še veliko več.

Če vas zanima, kaj ima za povedati mlada umetnica Rebeka, si oglejte videoposnetek pogovora.

Rebeki se v imenu ekipe galerije Media Nox iskreno zahvaljujem za ta pogovor in ji želim veliko uspeha na nadaljnji umetniški poti.

Martina Frangež”

“In this conversation, Rebeka told a bit more about her work, why her work is accompanied by mythology, what she does nowadays, how she sees the art scene in Slovenia and Maribor and what she misses the most during isolation and much more. If you want to know what Rebecca has to say, watch a video.

On behalf of the Media Nox Gallery team, I sincerely thank Rebeka for this conversation and wish her successful career.
