Aistija Sokolova

Aistija Sokolova(58)

All artworks

Aistija Sokolova is an artist deeply committed to her craft, valuing both the scientific foundations and the emotional dimensions of creation. Her approach to art is profoundly shaped by a respect for the enduring laws of physics, which serve as a distinct basis for her work. This scientific inquisitiveness fuses naturally with her desire to communicate both personal and collective narratives through her art.

When painting, Aistija delves into the interaction between colors and tones, fully absorbing herself in their interplay to forge a stronger connection with her own identity. This approach is at once experimental and inward-looking, enabling her to unveil new aspects of herself with each completed painting. Each work thus becomes a reflection, revealing personal insights as well as visual beauty.

Themes of universal and essential importance are at the heart of her artistic practice. Aistija’s paintings often explore topics such as faith, hope, cultural identity, human rights, and mental well-being. By addressing these subjects, she prompts viewers to contemplate them and discover their own interpretations, thus fostering a space for shared dialogue and understanding.

In her exploration of the human form, Aistija employs the law of energy conservation both as a metaphor and as a framework for her compositions. She adeptly merges her use of color and expressive techniques to create a unified visual experience, offering an integrated world where physical principles are woven together with human narratives.

About this artwork+

The painting showcases an aerial view of a verdant landscape rippled with dark green and bright green fields. A dirt road in greyish white meanders through the canvas, linking a collection of small white buildings with grey roofs, suggesting a rural village or farmsteads. Surrounding the central focus, clusters of dark green trees or shrubbery punctuate the fields, providing a stark contrast to the lighter shades of green that dominate the scene. A strip of a dark stormy sky looms at the horizon, blending into the lighter blue of a clear day, indicating perhaps a change in weather or the transition between storm and sunshine.
