Description

In these series of artworks the artist engages in a dialogue with the art of Mark Rothko. Tatiana creates a perpetual dynamic flow from Rothko’s color fields, extracting the inner context of each field, and revealing the hidden tones, colors, and relationships between them. Rothko’s color fields were never painted in a single plane; they always contained depth and middle tones. Tatiana takes this further by creating dynamism and interflow between the fields. The geometric construction is in constant movement, with each layer having its own color and transparency level, which changes when overlaid with other layers. The artist aims to show that the painting becomes alive, breathing, and moving.

The artist delves into the philosophical exploration of perception and reality. By transforming Rothko’s static color fields into dynamic, interwoven layers, Tatiana invites viewers to reflect on the fluid nature of existence and the interplay of seen and unseen forces. Each layer represents a fragment of experience, and their interaction symbolizes the complexity of human perception—ever-changing, multi-dimensional, and deeply interconnected. Through this artistic process, the artwork transcends its physical boundaries, becoming a living entity that breathes and evolves with the viewer’s perspective, embodying the constant flux of life itself.

 “Ether” is a dynamic construction that explores the interplay of light, color, and feeling. Drawing inspiration from Mark Rothko’s “Untitled (Lilac and Orange over Ivory)” (1961), the artwork captures the ethereal quality of the color fields, invoking the sensation of being enveloped in the ether, as imagined by the ancient Greeks—a boundless, luminous space that connects the heavens and the earth. Through the shifting, flowing layers of color, “Ether” evokes a sense of weightlessness and transcendence, inviting the viewer to experience the artwork as a moment suspended in time, where light and color converge in a delicate balance.
