    Description

    The viewer sees a woman-human. Not a sexualized woman-object, to whose pictorial interpretations we are so accustomed that we no longer notice our perception of a woman in art. Here he sees a woman as she is.

    Her nudity is not the kind of nudity that celebrates body shape and sex appeal. Here nudity is my opportunity to emphasize that even being naked, you can remain free in your manifestations, perhaps aesthetically unaccustomed. Even being naked, you don't have to be an object of sex.

    A woman sits in an open pose, without hesitation and without emphasizing anything that nature has given to her body. She is free, self-confident and takes positions in relation to life based solely on her own comfort.

    In her hands is a vagina, the same integral part of the body as the nose. However, it is her woman who is forced to protect from society, so often in the direct (sexual violence), and almost always in a figurative sense (objectification of women, harassment, stereotyped thinking about women, their role in the family / society, their mind, etc.)

    Concept

    The main theme of my paintings is the fight against mental disorders inside a person and the states associated with it. My artistic practice is based on reflection on my own 12-year experience of living with anxiety-depressive disorder. The paintings depict people who are in a state of struggle with a mental disorder.

    The painting depicts people who are in a state of struggle with a mental disorder. In my art, I try to reflect a fragment of the course of a mental disorder snatched out of space. I am trying to fit the process, the long experience of living certain values ​​of states. These states are very deep and not typical for people with a healthy psyche. People are depicted one by one: I share O. Huxley's idea that people are somehow alone in their perception of the world, and we are forced to live all internal events on our own. This series for me is an opportunity to draw public attention to the fight against the stigmatization of mental disorders.

    A continuation of the main theme of mental health is the theme of the internal sensations of a woman living in restrictions imposed by society, patterns of behavior. In my paintings, I convey inner tension, protest. In this series of works, I represent a person who is in uncomfortable psychological conditions due to certain expectations of society about what is normal for a woman, how a woman should or should not. So, I draw attention to the inner world of a woman in modern realities. Through this series of works, I broadcast women's freedom and the right to express themselves regardless of society's expectations.

    Art for me is not only the result of my experience and reactions to everything that happens, but also the opportunity to draw the viewer's attention to their own world of sensations, for which in the modern globalized world sometimes there is no time left.

    I paint expressive oil paintings in the figurative genre. The characteristic features of my paintings are large brush strokes, pronounced contrast, paint drips.
