About Yulia Ani

 
 
  • Biography
    Yulia Ani was born in 1983 in Kamchatka, Russia. Yulia has also lived in the US and France, and is currently located in Berlin, Germany.

    She received her Bachelor’s degree in Advertising from the Moscow University of Humanity, attended art school and private art lessons in Moscow, and studied in Painting at SKBG Collage in Berlin.

    In 2024 Yulia completed the “Contemporary Art since 1990” course with Sotheby’s Institute of Art.

    Statement

    Yulia Ani’s art explores her psyche, emotions, and memories, transforming these internal landscapes into abstract forms.

    Her intuitive process merges spontaneity with intention, creating works that balance figuration and abstraction. By distorting shapes, simplifying forms, and employing vibrant colors with expressive lines, Yulia translates personal experiences into a universal visual language.

    In the spirit of Francis Bacon, she focuses on capturing both the essence of external forms and the energy beneath them.
    Each piece becomes a portal, inviting the audience to explore the intersections of inner and outer realities.
    Yulia’s approach combines the spontaneity of creativity with structured techniques, resulting in visually striking and thought-provoking works.

    Yulia Ani’s artworks are part of private collections worldwide.

    Venue: SLP Gallery, Berlin

    For the upcoming duo exhibition"Convergence: Der Tanz von Kontrast und Harmonie”, featuring Sebastian Merk and Yulia Ani at Galerie Sara Lily Perez, we are pleased to present a compelling showcase that weaves together the distinct yet harmonious artistic languages of two contemporary talents. This exhibition is a vivid exploration of the interplay between contrast and harmony, inviting viewers into a dialogue with the artists' unique perceptions of the world. Sebastian Merk brings to the canvas a dynamic symphony of colors, contrast, and movement, creating emotional landscapes that captivate the viewer and draw them out of the current moment. Merk's work is deeply influenced by memories, dreams, and the desire to revisit past moments. His approach integrates the use of acrylics, acrylic-inks, and blacklight UV-reactive paints, revealing unseen worlds beyond everyday perception. Yulia Ani, on the other hand, delves into the profound intersections of human experience through a blend of

    Women artists have long been making powerful contributions to the world of art.
    From the Renaissance period to modern times, women have broken down social and cultural barriers to express themselves and make a mark on the world. Despite the odds, women artists have created groundbreaking works of art that inspire, challenge and move us. From painters like Frida Kahlo to sculptors like Louise Bourgeois and installation artists like Yayoi Kusama, these artists and many more have shown us the strength and beauty of female creativity. Their works are a testament to the power of women and a reminder of how vital it is to celebrate and invest in female art.
