Marina Krasnitskaya

    Marina Krasnitskaya is an artist whose work embodies deeply personal and emotional dimensions. She is inspired by capturing her own feelings, states and memories in an encrypted form in her paintings and sharing them with the viewer. Her preferred artistic approach is symbolism, using an exciting mix of figurative and abstract representation. For Krasnitskaya, each painting is a narrative in itself - a story that comes to life through color, form and the subtle play of light and shadow. The artist loves to experiment with different materials and finds metal oxidation on canvas a fascinating technique that integrates the chance and mystery of the creative process. Her painting is never static, but constantly evolves through experimentation with new techniques. The unpredictability of the result and the interplay of forms inspire her to explore new paths in art and thereby further deepen the expressiveness of her pictures.Krasnitskaya's works are characterized by a clearly recognizable Russian formal language, which she imaginatively combines with the folk art of her homeland. Her motifs are often characterized by the intense colors and symbolic depth that are reminiscent of artists such as Malevich or Chagall. In her pictures she gives the great feelings - love, longing and hope - a form that often appears in the form of female figures or abstract symbols. Her painting is a diary of colors and shapes, a mirror of her inner world in which she captures emotional moments and transforms them into artistic compositions.For Marina Krasnitskaya, art is more than just a profession or a passion. She describes painting as her "double, her conscience, her second self" and sees a deep expression of herself in each of her works. With her art, she creates a contemporary monument to Russian fairy-tale culture and symbolism, transporting viewers into a dreamlike world full of poetry and depth.
