Anastasia Georgievskaya
Anastasia Georgievskaya is following the trajectory of interdisciplinary art. The interdisciplinary approach in her artistic practice has drawn on her experience as a psychologist and artist. Personal events in her life were the initial point of reference for her visual research. She is currently focusing on total installations which include art objects, paintings, graphics and video art. She’s graduating from the MMOMA School of Contemporary Art. Influenced by her experiences in Sri Lanka, and the birth of her son there in 2014, it became a starting point for Second Childhood. Starting as a personal story, a self-analysis of memory, now, it is an international interdisciplinary art project.
In the 15 years of her active exhibition career, Georgievskaya took part in more than 50 art shows globally. She participated in the International Biennale of Contemporary Art, and has worked in various international art residencies.
In her installations, art objects and paintings, graphics, and video footage interact organically, create a visual story taking the viewer on a journey to far-away geographical locations. The artist is looking at the culture of a country through the experience of motherhood and childhood. In the future, the "Second Childhood" project will expand its global presence. Soon it will be implemented in Turkey, Germany, Montenegro, the UK, and Spain.
‘Anastasia Georgievskaya’s compositions are historically and plastically connected with the birth of her child, with changes in her psyche, physiology and life mission. The unique space of her artistic material testifies to the artist’s special ecological creative method, but at the same time, it returns to us the memory of the childhood of all living things, about the naturalness of the invisible lines between the physical and ideal worlds, between the emotional and poetic point of view and the intellectual comprehension of visual experiences. Fixing the metaphorical topography of personal living space, Anastasia Georgievskaya attaches it to us with all the traces of her dramas, hopes and happy opportunities. The artist harmonizes her personal unstable balance, turning the experience of a radical specific existence into historical universality.’
