Anna Kartenova
Russian federation
(b. 1992)
Born in Nizhny Novgorod.
Lives and works in Moscow.

In my work I am drawn to themes of the divine and the human; a deep and thoughtful, even mystical encounter with reality; the strength and weakness of man, and the timelessness of strong experiences. To express these themes I pay particular attention to light, because it can express any emotion and can even be the protagonist of a painting. Light plays the role of a guiding star for the seeker and the thinker.
