The opening inaugurates Natalia Korotyayeva’s solo exhibition, titled FUGA— named after the main work, an oil painting on six wooden panels.
Absent in the paintings on wooden panels from the FUGA series, which consists of six 100x200 panels, and in the other canvas works exhibited, colors reappear in the sculptures made of glazed or blackened ceramics, often wrapped in embroidered fabrics and veils.
Natalia Korotyayeva’s art evokes an existence traveling through the universe—sometimes in harmony with a nature pared down to its essentials, stark and bare—in a world populated by human and animal figures depicted in a symbolic manner, and in other forms and materials softened by color and fabrics, almost like frames from a reality that is not yet fully defined, suspended in space and time.
