Melancholy Painting

Anna Kochetkova is a contemporary Russian artist whose creative path is characterized by a unique and profound exploration of color, emotion and the human form. Born with the gift of synesthesia, she always had the innate ability to associate sounds, emotions and various sensations with bright colors. Over the years, this innate synesthetic perception has evolved into a conscious and focused artistic vision.Following her passion for art, Kochetkova pursued higher education at the Russian State University for the Humanities, where she eventually received a degree in graphic design. During her first year of university, her talent as an artist became apparent, prompting her to embark on a journey of self-discovery and artistic exploration. She immersed herself in the world of exhibition work, demonstrating her unique perspective and captivating use of color to convey emotion and experience.Central to Kochetkova's artistic philosophy is the belief that art serves as a powerful means of expressing deep emotions and inner truths. Her paintings are a testament to this belief as she skillfully uses color, line and human form to convey profound and often elusive aspects of the human experience. For her, the human body serves as a channel for the manifestation of the unconscious in the physical world, and she tries to reveal the invisible, giving emotions and images a tangible presence on the canvas.
