Tatiana Sedova's works exude thoughtfulness, melancholy, and poeticism.

"I would like people to look at my works and escape the confines of contemporary hustle and bustle, take a moment to look around and realize that life is fleeting and we can't grasp everything. The most important thing is to savour the present moment, which will never return; to reflect on their way of life, where they are heading, and why; to remember their long-forgotten dreams."
