Ksenia Safina

Her paintings seem to belong to the scope of abstract painting from the formality. Her paintings are hidden with various animals, plants, figures, ancient architecture, and landscapes as well as other specific image. As the painter portrays, she pursuits the painting presentation and style of "eternity", which is purely the external artistic performing style. She impresses the audience the most with the colors, textures, brushes, and the structural aesthetics of images. She emphasizes
on the beauty of forms. However, such aesthetics of her coincides with the "meaningful forms" advocated by Susan Lange.
The painter tends to produce different emotions and feelings towards different themes, and thereby can create paintings of different formality. The content of her painting is quite rich with praises to the nature, the chanting for historical poem, portrait for myth, and narration for history.
Although her paintings look glamorous, they are in fact containing philosophical contexts that can make one ponder repeatedly.
