Marina Skepner
Pigeon

2018

About the Item

This striking oil painting features a solitary pigeon set against a deep black background, emphasizing the bird's delicate form and subtle elegance. The pigeon is rendered in meticulous detail—its iridescent neck feathers shimmer with hints of green and violet, contrasting with the softness of its gray and white plumage. The bird’s eye is alert and glistening, adding a sense of quiet intelligence. The stark black background isolates the subject, creating a dramatic and almost reverent atmosphere. Each brushstroke captures texture and light with precision, elevating an ordinary city bird to a symbol of quiet dignity and grace. The painting’s simplicity enhances its emotional depth, allowing viewers to reflect on overlooked beauty in the everyday. Marina Skepner lives and works in Bonn, Germany. She was born in Moscow, studied at Surikov State Art Institute in Moscow and the Montenegrin Art Academy, majoring in painting. She worked at the Dukley Art Residence by European Art Community and Dukley Summer School in Montenegro in 2015 and 2016. The artist’s work often tackles the theme of childhood, the problem of understanding the essence of time, the particular perception and comprehension of history. Marina is a member of the Bonn Union of Artists (BBK Bonn, Rhein-Sieg) and GEDOK-Bonn. Marina has had many personal exhibitions and participated in numerous collective projects in Germany, Great Britain, Germany, France, Italy, Switzerland, Ukraine, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro.
