I am exploring sexuality through my own identity. Feminism informs my identity as a woman; the politics of this allows me to be free to explore sexuality in my practice which is in itself the function of legacy.
I acknowledge and challenge aspects of sexuality within my own identity through various artistic mediums such as paintings, drawings, printmaking, performances, and animations.
I approach my practice as an experience, a physical and almost performative moment: every piece of art, every artistic gesture, or a manifest is a way to overcome embarrassment to accept vulnerability, weakness, and fragility.
Within the layers of my artistic exploration, I unravel the intricacies of sexuality, liberating myself from personal struggles through the strategic use of blots, strikes, and erasures. This transformative process manifests in various forms, be it expressive drawings, random collages, vibrant digital animations, striking graffiti, or dedicated pieces paying homage to old masters' paintings.
Within this practice, I unravel my sexual identity, navigating the boundaries and traps imposed by my Russian and Jewish background. Confronting fear, I become aware of the voice buried in anxiety and frustrations, acknowledging the hidden power within. The repetition in my practice releases and controls chaos, structuring ideas and thoughts.
My practice is being centered around a compelling and evocative concept. By challenging the viewer to confront and acknowledge their vulnerabilities, I am encouraging a deep and authentic engagement with my work. The emphasis on pushing boundaries and overcovering embarrassment suggests a desire to create a space for genuine self-expression and connection.
