About Lana Zerkalnaya

 
 
  • Biography
    I grew up in a big city, but my favorite time since childhood is my grandmother's house in the village and nature. Only there could I feel the calm flow of life and freedom from social pressure. It is man and nature that remain the main sources of inspiration for me.
    I do not like harsh and unambiguous statements in my work. I want to think more about the duality and versatility of life. Everything around us has two sides. What to choose and why? These are simple questions that are sometimes difficult to answer.

    Having tried acrylic for the first time, I immediately fell in love with this material. It has truly incredible possibilities and helps me create bright textures on canvas and convey the character and mood of the main characters! I make many layers, and then destroy the already dried layers of paint. For me, this can be very emotional, and as a result, you can feel the mood of the work. If there is no person in the picture, then I try to reflect the melancholy of the moment, so that the viewer is interested in stopping and being alone in this space.
