About The Artwork

"The Girl from the Past" is a poignant artwork by Alex S, aka Baroque Anarchist, depicting the artist's mother as a young pioneer in the Soviet Union. The portrait is a beautiful and sentimental tribute to the artist's heritage and the struggles of his mother's generation. Symbolically, "The Girl from the Past" represents the power of memory and nostalgia. The image of the young pioneer is a potent symbol of a bygone era, evoking a sense of nostalgia and longing for a time that has passed. At the same time, the portrait captures the beauty and hope of youth, reminding us of the transformative power of hope and possibility. As the artist's portrait of his mother, "The Girl from the Past" is also a deeply personal and sentimental artwork. It represents the artist's connection to his heritage and the struggles and triumphs of his family's past. The portrait is a loving tribute to the artist's mother and a celebration of her beauty, strength, and resilience. Investing in "The Girl from the Past" means owning a piece of art that is not only visually stunning but also deeply symbolic and sentimental. It is a powerful reminder of the transformative power of memory and nostalgia and a beautiful tribute to the artist's mother and her generation.

I am a London-based visual artist who is deeply inspired by the Baroque epoch and its parallels with the contemporary moment. As a child born during the Chernobyl Disaster, I have always been fascinated by the quest for immortality through science and art, and the vulnerability and strength of the body. My background in Baroque painting and theatre design has heavily influenced my contemporary art practices, allowing me to create bold and punkish works that are not afraid to tackle contemporary issues. My aim is to make painting popular again, just like it was in the Baroque times, creating works that leave a lasting impression and provide catharsis. Drawing inspiration from fashion icons like Alexander McQueen and Vivienne Westwood, I seek to push the boundaries of painting and make it a relevant and contemporary art form. I am an active participant in the London art scene, with my most recent exhibition being a solo show at Hampstead Art School in April 2023. I am constantly seeking to challenge myself and push the boundaries of what is possible with painting, and I hope to continue to do so for many years to come.
