"My works like a color kaleidoscope, reflect the versatility and harmony of the world around us."
Marina Astakhova is a Russian artist, whose work, as a color kaleidoscope, reflect the versatility and harmony of the world around us. A distinctive feature of her creative method is making shimmering and vibrating abstract geometric ornaments based on the traditions of op-art, orphism and post-painterly abstraction. In Marina’s artistic practice acrylic on canvas geometric compositions resonate with interior sculptures and wood panels. Astakhova's work is characterized by a constant desire to experiment with various techniques and materials. Lives and works in Moscow. Presented by the galleries: Art Is (VinZavod) and Rose Gallery, Moscow. Marina Astakhova's works are in the interiors of houses and offices in Russia, Great Britain, France, Switzerland, USA, Hong Kong, United Arab Emirates. The artist's creative process is an intuitive desire to fill the original void with color, clear bold lines and figures, to create a memorable image on the wall, a WOW factor that attracts the eye and changes the perception of a residential interior or public space.
