Marina Medvedeva is a fashion designer and creative person who has dedicated the past decade to abstract painting. Her artworks blend forethought with spontaneity, combining text fragments with freely and impulsively applied colors and layers of textured paste. The paintings created using her unique technique feature quotes from renowned and anonymous authors, enclosed by multiple layers of color and texture. The artist invites viewers to explore their associations and emotions through a synthesis of abstract compositions and text, provoking philosophical reflections. Medvedeva's art encourages contemplation of life's uniqueness and inspires the embrace of individuality as a fundamental value.
"The most amazing and yet undiscovered phenomenon is a Human – his secluded and obvious thoughts and actions. We are limited only by the frames that we have drawn ourselves! Through his work, the artist's task is to show how diverse the world is in all its manifestations!" (Medvedeva)
