Bogdanova Svetlana
artist
I love bright, pure colors, decorative forms and with their help I want to express that special children's perception of the world, in which there is a place for miracle and magic. My paintings are my poetry, the world of my soul, my attempt to bring more joy, more meaning to the world. Birds, people, animals live in the magical worlds of my paintings, but the main characters are trees. The tree is perfect. In ancient cultures, it was not in vain that the Tree of Life was considered the center of the universe. In my paintings I want to talk about the harmony of the world, about mystery, about spiritual quests about the dream of freedom.
I was born in Saint Petersburg. Since childhood, I drew a lot, then I studied at the Stieglitz Academy of Art and Industry. Since 2001 I have worked at the Hermitage museum. For many years I were engaged in silk painting, creating magical paintings on scarves, shawls and dresses using cold batik technique. In 2012, during pregnancy, I began to paint, it was the time when I realized what and how I can tell the world through my paintings. I paint in oils. I regularly participate in group exhibitions in St. Petersburg and Moscow. In 2021, my work was taken to a large exhibition at the famous Erarta Museum of Contemporary Art in St. Petersburg.
