ABOUT THE ARTWORK

“American Beauty” is the first work made in the resin oshibana technique. It is a reference to the same name movie - a tale of liberation, to live with satisfaction after you achieve what you want. The glancing surface of the artwork makes its colors brighter and more intensive, some tender petals were damaged by resin and dark spots occurred, which gives the artwork some depth and vintage look.

For me, constantly moving between countries, not verbal, but the visual language has become an actual form of communication. My art is about our inner processes, often mirroring in the outer world. Being born in a multicultural environment, I consider myself a citizen of the world. I combine elements of different times and cultural communities to show the absence of the need for separation, labeling. After all, we form all this together, in co-existence. Nature with its processes has become both my source of inspiration and the most suitable material for my works. I am interested in its symbolic properties, intertextuality, transformative qualities, energy, and mood. I unite opposites, such as the tenderness of flowers and the hardness of epoxy resin, thereby revealing the ambivalence of being. I tear objects out of their natural cycle, idealizing them, transforming the finite into a semblance of the infinite. My work focuses on our notion and perception of time. I celebrate the beauty of imperfection because every flaw is a trace of the inexorable elusiveness of time, evidence of experiential involvement, and, thus, an organ of self-identification. That’s why the contingency of the process and the errors resulting from the experimental move are important to my practice.
