“…Although Julika Lackner’s geometric paintings bear a superficial relationship to mosaic and tile work, sustained attention reveals a sensibility rooted in the alchemy of texture and palette. The large, vertically oriented “Mountain of the Sun 8” from 2020 offers a spiritual vision that’s as uplifting as the chords of a gospel choir.”

“Pattern Recognition: Claudia Borfiga, Julika Lackner, Yumiko Glover”

“…Across the room, Julika Lackner’s vibrant work subtly alters our own perception of atmosphere and light, as it reveals itself the longer one looks. Lackner captures the colors of the ocean and hills of Pismo in “Dunes,” then flattens the shapes into a linear and graphic form. “Mountain of the Sun 8” and “Blue Moon 1” complement each other in similar abstract scenes, rising over triangular mountains. The deep blues in the moon contrast with the dripping golds in the sun. Throughout her series, the use of gold and silver foil draws in natural light as well as our attention.”
