VICTORIA KOVALENCHIKOVA
Victoria Kovalenchikova is a professional artist from Belarus, who has been living and working in the Netherlands since 2008. The contemporary trend in her paintings is characterized by a figurative integration of abstract elements. The artist uses “fragments of emotion” to express her individuality within the framework of urban views and landscapes. Her fascination with the cityscape - both its architecture and its inhabitants - is quite evident in most of her works. She frequently attempts to portray the passage of time by recalling seemingly innocuous events unfolding at specific locations engrained in our collective memories. Most importantly, Kovalenchikova views the creative process of painting as a means of piecing together the infinite fragments of life. Kovalenchikova is inspired by the connection between all humans, and in her series, “Earth,” she explores the planet as a work of art. Using Google images to explore the Earth in its entirety, she plays with angles and textures. An earlier series focused on the tightly zoomed in areas of urban cities, and the “Earth” series is the antithesis of this micro exploration. Kovalenchikova states, “Although we humans may feel like disconnected, independent fragments, Earth reminds us that we are all united on this place: notes within a larger symphony of life. No different from the massive whale in the ocean or the tiniest needle of a pine tree. There is no way out; to save ourselves we must save our home”
