Larissa Uvarova
I am Larissa Uvarova, Ukrainian artist living and working in Lithuania now (Vilnius city). I like to create on a medium and large canvases, mainly 120x120 cm, 100x120 cm, 200x150 cm, etc. I work with oil on canvas, layer by layer, until I achieve a complex color that sounds and feels like movement, how the Universe moves and vibrates.
Color is the first thing that attracts attention in the artwork, so I'm in love with color and simple forms and that's what I'm interested in now. I'm trying to achieve a complex and simple color at the same time. For me, as an artist, the task is not just to create a picture. I create a visual artwork that would feel the sound and melody, which would take you to another reality and sensations. How does music, book, film, etc. I want the viewer to be detached from the reality and to be lifted up to the another reality for some short time, to another world - love, tranquility, harmony, to God / the Universe. I consider the artwork finished when looking at it I hear a melody. Paints begin to sound through a multi-layer overlay of colors. And the painting itself begins to move. If you look at it for a long time, this effect is felt.
DEEP INSIDE - it's a series of artworks about feeling of love, deep gratitude and trust. Somewhere between sea and sky this feeling lives. My goal is to make you to transfer to the new reality, this feeling will be closer when you are dreaming, meditating of praying. Only positive emotions, calmness and love to your home.
