Contemporary Painting
by Iryna Benderovska
Our life may be fascinating, rich and colorful, it is what we make. It's my philosophy of art. I was born in 1977 in Odessa. I graduated from the State Art School.
Art is held to reflect the artists' inner world. This, at least, seems to be implicit in the core meaning of the expression: the outer manifestation of an inner state. I've always been brave and successful in my courageous acts, therefore, I'm not afraid to experiment.
My artworks reflect the sense of “folk” these days, I’m keen on working with ethnic applied arts. Every day I explore something new and project my personal discoveries through my artworks. For me painting is a metaphor for my vision of life, I create works full of simple brightness, positivity and color saturation. I use open colors, bold shapes and mix styles with vehement enthusiasm.
I try to create the symbiosis of contemporary art and native cultural traditions whether I create flat artworks or paintings with perspective. Besides, I'm pretty detail-oriented paying special attention to compositional components and creating shapes. I’d like to give people a sense of balance in life and positive emotions. Extraordinary color solutions are challenging, and this everyday challenge seems like a slam dunk.
The primary merit of a painting is to be a feast for the eye Eugene Delacroix
My artworks are stashed in private collections in the USA, Russia, Ukraine, Azerbaijan, Switzerland and France.
Our life can be colorful and beautiful, the way we create it.
This philosophy is at the heart of my art.
