Svetlana Penrose

Svetlana Penrose (b. 1974, St. Petersburg, Russia) is a self-taught multidisciplinary artist working in ink, acrylic, and mixed media, currently based in southern Spain.
Her practice began in 2004 following a near-drowning in the Pacific Ocean — a moment of surrender that became the foundation of twenty years of daily mark-making. Working without formal training, underdrawing, or digital assistance, she builds intricate hand-drawn worlds from a single pen, mapping the invisible architecture of energy, consciousness, and spirit.
She has exhibited in the United States, Russia, and Spain, including the Photo Biennale at the Russian Museum, St. Petersburg, and Olivares Fine Art, Málaga.
