      <image:title>Statement - Lines of Reproductions</image:title>
      <image:caption>My art practice involves mixed-media installations, using printmaking, sculptural forms, and video. My latest research explores the role of women in society. After volunteering for the Mental Health Hospital and Women after Prisons Art Workshops I had a the tremendous change in the understanding of female efforts and their role in society. Since January, I have been trying to visualize and to find textual connections for the main elements in bringing up civilizations in processes of birth and breastfeeding. I chose to work with clay and printmaking to represent the correlation between natural forms, lines and the intangible aspect of time. The applied to throw wheel techniques distinguish the sculptures unique qualities in reflection to the individuality of human beings. Printmaking process chosen for the project echoes the reproduction and each man exclusive features at the same time. During my research, I have been focusing on psychoanalytical side of mother-child, and on two main phases of human development - pre-symbolic and symbolic stages. During the first stage when the linguistic skills are not developed, a child lives in the pool of images of mother vital ‘food-bank’ materiality, tenderness of touches, voice and her care. This is the dominant area where I tried to find visual connections. The side visual research has been ongoing in studying natural femininity, body shapes, curves, sexuality and physiology - aspects of attraction between genders, necessities of reproduction for human race continuity, and causes for breastfeeding and further care. Working in the ceramic and printmaking studios I was thinking about my mother, and myself being a mother, in addition to the mass of mothers around the world, working hard in bringing up families.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Work - Life I</image:title>
      <image:caption>Life I This artwork is based on Psalm 51 (50SP). The artwork 'Life 1' is an original print produced by hand-pulling techniques from the linocut. It is a part of the research project "All is One”, conceived during the residency for Christian artists 'Look! This is my Faith' in April 2024'. My research observes how people communicate with each other by meeting the eyes and reading the heart's worries or joy, let's say, the 'Spirit state'. The 50 concentrated gold lines represent the heart sound constantly emitted from the heart's cardiac valves. Humans are alive while the sound lasts. The capacity to hear those sounds is limited, yet vibrations resonate all around us, shaping our environment and existence.</image:caption>
