This painting was inspired by a beautiful sunrise in the mountains. "First light" belongs to my my abstract landscape series "Energy". In this series I explore the circulation of energy on our planet, its manifestations in nature and our daily life. I want to show a slightly different vision of the world around us through the prism of energies, that we don't always see, but we feel. "First light" was created on 100x100 canvas, with edges of the canvas painted.

Elena Guryeva is a San Francisco Bay Area artist who grew up in Russia. A former practicing architect, Elena has since lived in several diverse countries. Upon her move to Belgium, she began making art. After her relocation to Santiago, Chile in 2017, Guryeva joined a group of artists and dedicated herself full time to painting. In 2020 she completed her studies in History of Art and Contemporary Gallery Management at Sotheby's Institute of Art, New York. She has exhibited internationally, and her work can be found in private collections in Europe, Latin America, and the United States. Since 2021, Elena has been living and working as a freelance artist in the San Francisco Bay Area, California, USA. STATEMENT As human beings, we dwell in a fascinating and mysterious world, where often verbal language alone falls short to describe the complexities of our experiences. Creating artwork is a vehicle to visually express my perception of the world. I have lived in several diverse countries, which enabled me to learn multiple languages and observe various cultures. This wisdom drives me to respond in my art practice and explore numerous themes. I am inspired by this ongoing investigation and propelled to create new series of works, while using different means of expression in my art. Visual language is a powerful and dynamic universal instrument of communication. My intention is to convey to the viewer my emotions, ideas, and perspective from an angle that differs from our daily encounters. The objective here is to conjure a positive emotional response, and to move people, in their own ways. In my art I explore several topics. In the series Phenomena, I am motivated to materialize changes in nature. Often these shifts are a part of a natural cycle. For example, a sunset, a low tide or the arrival of a new season. Other times they are sudden events, like an earthquake or the collapse of a glacier. In this body of work there is an encounter between two painting styles. One being of randomness of a technique that is reminiscent of Gerhard Richter’s work. The second referencing the geometry of small squares that results from the application of paint with brushes, with the size of each square adapted to the thickness of different brushes. In creating tese works, I pay special attention to the forms that are superimposed, as they represent computer language and the place that technology occupies in our society.
