Biography
I started to create art due to the intense desire to express thoughts and feelings. The art became an outlet for my reflection and response to the environment. The goose became my totem. Due to my second name (Gus-eva) this symbol followed me since the childhood - it shaped my personality and influenced my way. The goose silhouette as an allegory in my art builds the window into my inner world- different reality that exists behind the surface. My work is embodied in this sign, frames it or emphasises elements of it.
I'm painting abstractions and the most important issue for me is to fill my works with energy and force of colour impressions. I think that art should be accessible to everyone. The goose brings my creativity to realisation, it connects two main poles of my world- art and life. For the viewer it is the zero point, the possibility to cling to the simple subject that will open a whole world of impressions.
I as an artist always looking for the dialogue with the audience. I seek the direct contact with the viewer and the impressions exchange. Since 2012 my paintings have been exhibited in DEVE Gallery (Moscow, Russia), Art.ru Gallery (Moscow, Russia), participated at 5 Moscow Biennale of Contemporary Art Exhibition "And now I would not draw" and the project "art cocktail" in the National Exhibition Center in Bruges, Belgium.
February 2015 I staged my first personal exhibition "The Goose" in Moscow Gallery Zeppelin. It was attended by most cultural opinion leaders, celebrities and art lovers of the city. During the show, visitors could become acquainted with my work and purchase exhibited canvases and sculptures. The gallery was almost sold out- it was a great success for the launch of my art brand. Exhibition in Bruges showed big response and interest of European audience to my contemporary works and me as a young artist. Due to this experience, I feel strong desire to present my work in Europe.
