About the Item
This striking oil painting features a vibrant arrangement of white chrysanthemums and blue hortensias, accented with delicate red hypericum berries and lush green foliage. Bold, sweeping brushstrokes and rich, layered textures convey a sense of movement and emotion, creating harmony of colour and form. The expressive background, with its muted greens and blues, contrasts beautifully with the luminous white blooms and the vivid blues of the hortensias.
Chrysanthemums hold deep cultural significance in many parts of Asia. In Japan, they symbolize longevity and rejuvenation, while in Chinese culture, they represent nobility and honour. Hortensias, popular in Japan and South Korea, are associated with gratitude and understanding. The addition of hypericum berries, which symbolise protection and positivity, adds another layer of meaning. The artist, who lives and works in Singapore, draws inspiration from these cultural meanings and the region’s natural beauty, capturing the essence of tranquility and fleeting beauty in this expressive composition.
The painting is sold unframed.

Irina is a contemporary Russian-born British artist currently residing in Singapore. Most of Irina’s work is representational but recently she has been looking to shift it towards a fine balance between abstraction and realism. Her subject matter covers a wide range from still lifes and landscapes to portraiture and life drawing sketches. She prefers oils to other mediums for its versatility in application but also enjoys acrylics, gouache, charcoal and ink. Irina exhibits regularly (35+ shows and art fairs in the last 3 years) and her works are in private collections in the UK, the USA, Europe, Russia, Hong Kong and Singapore.
