SILENCE, OPUS 3
www.arinagordienko.com
I always work in hope that my paintings can speak for themselves. I put my thoughts, my feelings and emotions on canvas by brushes and paints.
I believe, if a painting needs a lot of explanations, it should have been a book written, or a song, or lyrics rather than a painting.
Painting initially is a silent media and I believe, there should not be any hustle around it with words. I think it is enough to stay in front of a painting and feel if you have a connection with it or not, do you like it or not, whether there are any explanations beside it or none of them.
All my passion is for portrait painting, but I suggest my work being a performance rather than traditional portraiture. I perform myself an image that has inspired me, manipulating with my own face, performing as an actress and documenting the process as an artist. As a final outcome I paint this transformed reflection on canvas.
I mainly use my own face because it is the most patient and available at any time model for my works. I do not paint a portrait of anybody, I work with an image as if it is a ‘litmus-paper’ of the inner, a symbol of emotions or feelings.
