A New Reality: Return to the World of Abstraction

29 Eyl 2024 Eklendi

Every time I pick up a brush, I feel the urge to transcend reality. After exploring various genres and techniques, I find myself returning to what has always been my source of inspiration — abstraction. Here in Ecuador, where nature is filled with striking contrasts and vibrant emotions, I’ve rediscovered the pull of this direction.

You may have seen some of my earlier abstract works on the website. These pieces reflect a journey of exploration and experimentation, capturing layered emotions and moods. But since my move to Ecuador, my painting has taken a new turn. I’ve immersed myself in new colors and forms, drawing inspiration from the landscapes, culture, and my own experiences.

For me, abstraction has always been more than just a random interplay of colors and shapes. It carries a certain energy, a play of light and shadow, a rhythm that evokes emotions. Each painting is an invitation for the viewer to dive into their own interpretations. The new collection, soon to be unveiled on the website, is the result of a deep, personal journey and the inspiration I’ve found in this remarkable country.

Ecuador has become a living canvas for me. From the dramatic cloudscapes over the mountains to the lush rainforests and vast oceans, I’ve created a series of works that capture the movement of nature and the energy of the world around me. These paintings hold fleeting moments — brief yet saturated with color and form.

Why am I returning to abstraction now? Perhaps because abstraction offers freedom. It allows one to break free from the constraints of reality, to give full rein to imagination and emotion. In my new paintings, you can feel this liberation — they live their own lives, interacting with each viewer uniquely, evoking personal associations.

So what can you expect from this collection? Bursts of color, unexpected shapes, and flowing lines that reflect both the inner world and external impressions. I invite you to see how abstraction has been reborn in my work, becoming a new form of expression under the bright Ecuadorian sun and among the towering Andean peaks.

Each painting is the result of my fresh vision of the world, and I believe these works will resonate with something deep within you. This is not just abstraction; it is an emotional reality, one that invites you to dive in. Behind every line and color lies a story — perhaps one that’s waiting for you.

Don’t miss the chance to be among the first to see the new collection on my website. These works are waiting for the right viewer and collector who can feel their energy and uniqueness.

ABOUT THE CREATIVITY OF SVETLANA SOKOLOVA

28 Ağu 2024 Eklendi

Svetlana Sokolova is an artist whose work is filled with light, emotion, and deep symbolism. Born and raised as a creative individual in Russia, she later found inspiration in the tropical beauty of Ecuador, where she currently lives and works. Her paintings are a unique blend of cultural elements from two vastly different worlds, combining Slavic soulfulness with the vibrant colors of South America.

Sokolova's works are characterized by rich colors, energetic brushstrokes, and clear composition. Her paintings often remind viewers of forgotten dreams, childhood memories, or hidden corners of the soul that we do not always dare to explore. Each piece seems to be infused with light, symbolizing both hope and the artist’s inner world.

Nature holds a special place in Svetlana's art. The plant and animal life in her paintings come alive on the canvas, whether it’s the riot of colors in a tropical forest or the mysterious, almost fairy-tale atmosphere of a Russian woodland. She skillfully conveys the mood of nature, whether it’s the morning mist enveloping the trees or the bright sun breaking through dense foliage.

Symbolism plays a significant role in Sokolova’s work. Every detail carries deep meaning, whether it’s a blooming flower representing a new beginning or an old tree symbolizing the path and experience of life. This symbolism allows the viewer not only to enjoy the visual aspect of the art but also to delve into reflections, finding something personal and close in the paintings.

The influence of her move to Ecuador is evident in her recent works. Here, among the exotic nature and welcoming people, she has found a new palette of colors and images. Her paintings have become even more vivid and emotional, radiating joy and optimism. Ecuador has given Svetlana new creative energy, reflected in her works filled with sunlight and warmth.

Thus, Svetlana Sokolova's art is not just a reflection of the external world but a deep dialogue with herself and the viewer. Her works invite us on a journey through worlds of imagination and memories, where everyone can find something important and genuine for themselves.

Hayatın değişimi!

Şubat 2024'te Rusya'dan Ekvador'a taşındım. Bu karar hemen alınmadı, ancak çok fazla düşünmenin ve endişenin sonucuydu! Artık güzel Cuenca şehrinde yaşıyorum ve yaratıcılığımda yeni bir aşama başlıyor. Ekvador'dayken zaten on eser yarattım ve birçok fikrim var. Ekvador dost canlısı insanlarla çok rahat bir ülke olduğu ortaya çıktı. Zaten bazı yerel sanatçılarla arkadaş oldum. Beni çok iyi karşıladılar ve bana birçok yönden yardımcı oluyorlar. Noel'e yakın bir zamanda ortak bir sergi düzenlenmesi bile düşünülüyordu. Hayatımdaki değişikliklerden çok mutluyum ve arkamda kanatların büyüdüğünü hissediyorum!

Merhaba arkadaşlarım ve meslektaşlarım! Dünyadaki mevcut duruma dayanarak, birkaç şey söylemek istiyorum. Her zaman tezahürlerinden herhangi birinde saldırganlıktan nefret ettim! Sevdiğiniz şeyi - resim yapmayı - yaşamanızı ve sakince yapmanızı engeller! Şu anda, farklı ülkelerdeki bir grup politikacı, dünyamızı karanlık bir saldırganlık ve nefret karmaşasına sokmaya çalışıyor! Gezegendeki tüm yaratıcı insanları karanlık güçlerin saldırısına boyun eğmemeye ve tüm yaratıcı potansiyellerini bunun için kullanarak insanlara parlak bir başlangıç getirmeye devam etmeye çağırıyorum!

Привет, друзья!

Свое сотрудничество с ARTMAJEUR я начинаю с публикации моих новых работ, выполненных в стиле графического абстрактного экспрессионизма. Эти работы знаменуют собой начало совершенно нового периода в моем творчестве. Открыв для себя строгий лаконизм графики, я стараюсь соединить его с сочными, широкими цветовыми мазками.
