Painting "in the manner of" is not Feodorovna cup of tea. It is not Feodorovna's nature to take the painting cues from old masters.
Rather, Feodorovna states:"my paintings reflect personal experience, giving form to emotions I have witnessed throughout my life where individual experience meets social and political sins.
In an attempt to make visual sense out the social dilemma, I deal with proportion far to be gotten right, in the form of suffering's memories. We are often blinded by appearance and end up looking in the wrong places. The disproportionated bodies in the paintings, more or less nuanced are only the reflection of our insecurity feelings.
Because of this I need on my part of course to distinguish between the expression of myself and the expression of my ego, to discover the difference between wise individuality and unwise individualism."
There is no question for the artist that it is this insecurity feeling which is the basis of the body's disproportion. A disproportion which is the fruit of orthodox spirits, fervent ideologists defending themselves from the doubt and uncertainty, refusing to receive the aspects of the human psychology that one knows so little and the conscious freedom which drives us towards evil sometimes.
Feodorovna acknowledges pain and imperfection and makes the claim that the flawed body which doesn't perfectly fall short of society's expectations is capable of perfect consciousness.
The figures physically suggest a strong desire for transformation. Through images of nude "disproportionated" women, the painter explores an ideal balance of woman's connection to God and suffering. The artist explores Universal themes : Feminity, sexuality, spirituality, with scenes that combine inventive theatrics with insightful political and social observation in some of Feodorovna's work.
A sense of wonder, a touch of chaos, a hint of light. DAISY NEPSY. |
