Natasha Lelenco
Medium-sized Contemporary Pop Surrealist Abstract Portrait "Luckily Alive"

2022

About the Item

"Luckily Alive" is one of the works from the "Fetishes" series that Natasha Lelenco created throughout the year 2022. The title of this artworks is taken from the song "Kak Na Vojne" by the Russian rock band from the '90s, Agata Kristi. It was featured in the international exhibition Nordart 2022 in Büdelsdorf, Germany. The artwork, midway between figuration, portraiture, still life, and abstraction, presents a meticulous anthropomorphic composition constructed from floral elements and objects associated with the artist's childhood memories, such as a beret, a bowtie, or a small boat of plastic soldiers. Lelenco's "Fetiches" series melds portraiture and anthropomorphic forms, achieved through a meticulous accumulation of elements. These elements intertwine with a nuanced thematic exploration, touching upon both kitsch and popular iconography. The series also delves into the inseparable connection between humanity and the larger living community. Drawing from her personal biography, Natasha Lelenco constructs a dialogue between memory and imagery. Through a skillful process, she resurrects fragments of her past to craft fresh narratives that challenge conventional perceptions of existence. This narrative depth, coupled with psychological complexity, echoes classical influences, seamlessly bridging the gap between Renaissance portraiture and contemporary expression. Notably, Lelenco's "Fetiches" series echoes the artistic echoes of Italian painter Giuseppe Arcimboldo. These pieces have been designed to function individually or to be combined into multiple panels, engaging in dialogue with other artworks from the same series.
