Katya Tsareva
In The Room #5 by Katya Tsareva - Expressionist painting, oil on canvas, 2021

2021

About the Item

The Room #4 is the 4th work in "In The Room" series by contemporary artist Katya Tsareva. In this series the artist continues to analyze the difficult relationship between human being and living space. In this series the artist depicts enclosed rooms with a perspective going deep into the painting, while human bodies are subjected to dramatic deformations, taking unnatural positions, losing contours and gradually transforming into menacing poisonous plants (in this case we see the completed transformation, with the red substance on the floor suggesting the remainings of a human). Using the aesthetics of modern spaces Katya exacerbates the conflict between "pure" forms and their artificial anti-human essence, which cannot but affect inhabitants' mental state. Despite the obvious references to the 20th century architecture, the artist speaks about today: the future envisioned by Corbusier has now become a reality and we should learn how to live in it. The works evoke the feelings of liminality and eeriness, making the viewer look deeper inside oneself and reflect. - Katya Tsareva was born in 1984 in Krasnodar, Russia. In 2006 she graduated from Kuban State University, where she studied architecture and design. Since then Katya had become a multidisciplinary artist and in 2017 she was named as one of the top 100 young Russian artists, according to the Russian “In Art” database. Her works capture new collective narratives expressing contemporary cultural values, echoing dichotomies of human identity. Her recent solo exhibitions include: 2021 - In My White Corner / Pro Art`s Gallery / Kaluga / Russia 2020 - My Rooms / Futuro Gallery / Nizhni Novgorod / Russia 2018 - Search Me In The Flowers / Udmurt Republican Art Museum / Izhevsk / Russia Supported by PERMM Museum Of Contemporary Art. 2016 - The Story Of A One White House / GridchinHall / Moscow / Russia
