About The Artwork

Don't Cry to Me, Mati or Pieta in Pink Why do artists create paintings, and why people look at them? Have you ever thought about it? Why do we need art? Real, genuine art teaches us life: love, compassion, mercy on the verge of despair. When the modern world communicates completely different values to society, art becomes a marginal zone where the humanity is safe from falling into the abyss. ‘Pieta’ means compassion in Italian. But does our audience need compassion today? There are many smart and pseudo-intelligent paintings, but there are few truthful ones. Syuzanna Kamara is a rare contemporary artist whose art is a continuation of the traditions of the great masters of the past not in terms of academic techniques at all, but by its very essence — the search for an answer to the question “What is truth?”. This question was once asked by the procurator to a poor Jew in front of the people’s court, but he never received an answer because there is no answer to this question at all, or rather, we all have our own answers. For someone, the truth is his life, home and a country house. For another person, truth is love or death. Unlimited love and death — this is Pieta, one of the most recognizable stories in European art. A dead son lying on his mother's lap is not God, but a man. Anyone can find themselves in the place of God. So, are we able to learn to be compassionate again, to mourn the death of people even if they are distant and different from us? This painting is everyone's moral choice, like an acid test. What do you see: pink glamour, love or ravaging death?

Guinean and New York based Artist Syuzanna Kamara is one of the most promising artists of her generation. Raised in Guinea and in Moscow (Russia) Syuzanna is a graduate of Moscow state Surikov Art Institute and Moscow State Stroganov Academy of Industrial and Applied Arts (top 3 ranked art academies in the country). As a graduate of the best Russian art schools, Syuzanna is a follower of traditional Russian art school that certainly is reflected in her works. Along with that, Syuzanna brings drops of modernity in her paintings, creating an absolutely unique and distinctive style. In her artwork Ms.Kamara skilfully combines boldness, uniqueness and eccentricity of Pop Art movement, traditions of Classicism as well as brilliantly expressing her inner world, letting it come alive through the strokes of brushes and the texture of paint. Her artwork is full of depiction of reality, vitality, raw and exposed feelings, and is daringly imaginative. In her work, Syuzanna seeks to achieve the simple forms and textures inspired by the human body, transmission of emotions with the texture of the skin and water, ice and fabrics, portraying it as the three-dimensional projection as well as two-dimensional, flat decorative. Ms. Kamara has established herself as one of the most gifted and innovative artists of her generation. Her works are presented by multiple Art Galleries in Moscow, Saint-Petersburg.
