Feelings, 2023

The impulse for creating the series of paintings FEELINGS led to my decision to devote my life to Art and to become a full-time artist, leaving behind a successful career as an architect, interior designer and a teacher at the European university. Art is something that I have always put off “for later”, but it has always given me happiness “to create”. Since childhood, I loved painting, was interested in abstract art, fashion, color theory, adored museums, and sewed outfits for dolls.

The whole world is a Theatre. We very often play roles in Life like actors in a Theatre, hiding the most important thing under masks - our Feelings. The series of artworks “Feelings” was created during a difficult emotional period of my life: emigration, a new model, culture and rhythm of life far from friends and parents, the birth of a child and rethinking myself as a woman became the impetus for creating paintings in the moment. Every artwork is a feeling that I splashed out on the canvas. When there were tears in my eyes and a smile on my face no one around can understand what a woman feels, playing so difficult and different roles at the same time: responsibility for caring for children, demands to meet other people's standards, the desire to look feminine and desirable, find time for herself and for things that bring her pleasure.

Art has become my meditation, my language for communication with the Universe and every spectator who enters "My Theatre" begins to FEEL, and not play.
