Innerfields are a Berlin born and based art collective that grew up with graffiti and various influences; they formed as a group in 1998. The artists like to reflect on their surroundings and create mostly figurative motifs in a realistic approach, which are mixed with graphic elements and symbols. The main theme in their work is man, linked to being part of nature and all too often in defiance of it. Creating artwork is their profession and they like to participate in festivals and various art related projects around the world.

After returning back to the Czech Republic, I still had a deep need to educate myself on this issue and find out as much information as possible. Based on this, the only possible outlet for me was painting where I had the opportunity to express some disagreement or perhaps draw some attention to the problem. Stories and compositions began to emerge of girls I portrayed as strong heroines or fragile girls who were getting a lot of unwanted attention. In the paintings I reduced the descriptiveness a lot, I didn't think it was important to portray very young girls realistically, and I emphasized color and symbols.
Tomáš Tichý's paintings have long tracked the transformations of human sensitivity in a post-media (cross-media) environment and the digital age. His work responds to the flood of still and moving images that are consciously and subliminally becoming part of our lives, together rewriting the surface of reality and modelling a new plane of perception into which manipulative and levelling elements are automatically built. It traces the connection of new media with certain visual genres (fashion, sport, politics, consumerism) with the tendency to create attractive, visually memorable constellations (artificial paradises) and idols (celebrities). It measures and explores the relationship of the traditional hanging image to new stimuli that move, shift, and reshape the language of painting.
