Elena is an academically trained painter and illustrator graduated from Moscow State Academy of Print (1991-97, MA in Fine Art Honour with distinction). She has exhibited widely since 1996 in number of shows, galleries and museums. Including NCCA and Brunel museum. Her paintings and woodcuts are held in many private and some public collections around the world. She lives and works in London. Elena's visual stories continue in her latest series of prints 'Walk About'. Her mind ventured through the land of the 'Upside-down', a beloved yet intangible space. The series presents a dozen etchings depicting the imaginary game of ostrich polo set in the dangerous Outback from the perspective of a lost little girl's eyes. The curious cut-off compositions, similar to film stills, are full of characters distorted by the girl’s imagination; each acting in a dreamy and dimensionless landscape. Elena’s unique etching technique has progressed further towards painting, using a soft ground roller. This creates chaotic dot matrix, which is then controlled by brush masking and completed with springs marks and a needle. Her atypical utilisation of tiny inking spatulas allows for the production of intricate and uniquely multi-chromatic prints from a single plate.
