Vladimíra Sedláková not only in terms of her opinions and intensity of her work, but also (rare in the young generation) in the area of geometric art. Her starting point was distinctive and gradually showed how it was a carrier - the world of technical drawings and graphs, formalized language that referred to the reality of the factory environment and yet was able to function itself... The artist first cited specific identifiable information" while at the same time isolating it as a kind of compositional quality, later selecting and layering details as they emerge in human memory. The subtlety of ink and pencil lines on black or white surface of paper or canvas confirmed that for Sedláková it remained the aesthetic quality of the result, that she understood the artwork as aesthetic actualization of that language which usually serves the utilitarian communication in the environment where it is researched, designed and realised. Consistent work with geometric elements with an obvious emphasis on purely artistic relations in the picture surface allowed the artist's work to be classified in the sphere of constructive art, elements that she derived from the technical sphere, even brought her works visually closer to intuitively working classical Constructivists, known from the interwar avant-gardes; a clear relation to the the world of technology and especially its two-dimensional representation guaranteed the artist's unmistakability and originality.
