Blurring the Boundaries Automatic translate

On November 23, Ekaterina Erokhina’s exhibition “Blurring Borders” opens at the ARTMUZA Museum of Contemporary Art.

Ekaterina Erokhina is an artist and graphic designer. In her works she develops the theme of psychology and philosophy of human existence.

“I have always written what I care deeply about; self-actualization is the main motive of creativity. In my works I convey that very great driving force, which invariably makes me develop, stimulates constant creative growth and impulse.”

Emotions are, in the artist’s opinion, the main resource for art in all its manifestations: “Not a single picture of mine can be painted without an initial outburst of feelings. Of course, what follows is hard work; This is the only way to try to make a painting a work of art, but emotionality is also important here.”

It would seem that when talking about emotionality and sensuality, the author should mainly depict people on canvases, but you practically won’t see them in Ekaterina Erokhina’s works.

In her opinion, it is much more interesting and difficult to convey the state of the soul through nature, elements and objects. A painting is a kind of snapshot of the artist’s emotions and self-actualization. This is constant work on yourself, your creativity and the study of human psychology. Each work has a symbol and a certain state, which sometimes the viewer does not immediately notice, but this is seen as even more valuable: he begins to reason and think. After all, as Whitehead said: “The function of the mind is to promote the art of living.”
