Marta Shmatava

I work in the contemporary figurative style with elements of symbolism and surrealism. A positive existentialism is my philosophy that I bring to the audience. My interests refer to a uniqueness of a human being, an individual. I am trying to work in a scale close to a human size in order to create more powerful and real-life-like communication with my viewers. In my art I am striving to create a new reality where the inner world of a human soul projects on to the outer world and shapes it. I use the language of symbols. Symbolism in my art translates in to multiple messages and adds dimensions to the interpretation, as I am trying to avoid delivering one specific message. In our world our souls can suffer from self -destruction, loneliness and stress. All these negative elements can be treated with light and creativity, and the transformation will follow .
