OLGA BATYRSHINA Painting/Photography
Born in 1985 in Leningrad, USSR.The education received in the field of architecture and design influenced the topics covered by the author. In the center of the artist's work is the heartless urban environment surrounding a person. A man with his own hands creates an unnatural, alien environment, to which he is forced to adapt and to exist in it. The natural environment, aggressively assimilated by man, turns into multimillion megacities, with a uniform building up of sleeping quarters, gigantic factories and plants, disfiguring cities. All this leads to the transformation of natural landscapes into artificial, and the genesis of the so-called "new nature", which is the subject of the author's research. The main ways of creative expression are: mix media painting and photography.
