About The Artwork

The artwork named “In wisdom we trust” was painted during the art performance “Stop shark finning” under ADEX Malaysia 2023. This performance took place in a transparent water tank. On the other side of the tank, the audience watched for 40 minutes how I painted a rubber shark entangled in the nets. After the art performance, I decorated the painting with scraps of fishing nets like a frame. I believe it’s irrational and unreasonable to kill a big animal for just one bowl of soup. That’s why I would like to attract the audience’s attention to the mass killing of sharks. I understand that each of us harms the environment simply because of our existence. I am not urging you to stop traveling, washing, and eating. I encourage you to be wiser and use resources more rationally. This thing is capable of helping nature significantly. It’s all about the “cooking” procedure. People catch hundreds of sharks. They cut off their fins alive and then throw them back into the water. Thus, the animal is condemned to a painful, slow death. Although the entire shark is edible, only the fins are eaten. Therefore, such fishing is notorious for the disproportionate harm done to living creatures. The sharks trust your wisdom!

Olga Belka is a unique underwater artist the only underwater portraitist in the world. She developed a unique technology of painting in salt water allowing her to paint from nature detailing the smallest details of the underwater world. She travels and paints all over the world. Olga managed to achieve not only the desired visual effect and environmental friendliness but also the durability of the paintings. She creates paintings completely from beginning to end from nature on the seabed. Each painting required from two to six dives and every dive lasts up to three hours. ⠀ Olga Belka paints not only corals, fishes, turtles, and other sea life. But she also works with staging. She creates various story compositions. For example, stories of treasure. To do this, she uses additional props, safe for marine life. ⠀ Having gained experience in painting underwater landscapes, Olga Belka set about creating a completely new art direction – an underwater portrait. In the water column, humans obey completely different laws of physics and are surrounded by new unfamiliar energies and a completely different harmony. Being under the authority of the same energies, Olga captures them on canvas. ⠀ Olga Belka’s unique studio is an underwater world where she creates the paintings while diving. The sea is a boundless resource of inspiration and energy for her and Olga Belka wants to share her vision of the underwater kingdom with the world. In addition, Olga wants to draw the attention of the world community to the beauties of the underwater world and the need to protect the environment. That is why Olga create paintings underwater.
