Nature as a Metaphor for Existence Ekaterina Orba is a visual artist whose paintings, objects, and installations bridge the visible and the unseen. Her works are infused with organic forms—inspired by plants, fruits, human bodies, and microbial structures. Through intricate compositions, she explores the delicate balance between growth and decay, nature and metaphysics. With a solid foundation in fine arts and a degree in architecture from St. Petersburg and Germany, Orba has developed a precise, almost scientific approach to observing forms and structures. This expertise translates into a visual language that moves between figurative precision and free abstraction. Her works demonstrate a deep understanding of composition, materiality, and color dynamics—each piece follows an internal logic that invites the viewer into a dialogue with nature and self-awareness. Orba’s art is a reflection on the hidden connections between body and environment, humanity and the cosmos. Her works have been exhibited internationally and are part of private and institutional collections. As a member of BBK (BVBK) and GEDOK Brandenburg, she actively contributes to the art scene.
