Nastya was born in Belarus and currently lives & works out of her home studio in Dubai as a full-time artist. Since childhood, she was creative and passionate about painting and fine Art. To expand her knowledge, she attended art school for a couple of years and had her first experience as an artist by participating in exhibitions.
Since those days art has been present throughout her life. However, it took her many years to listen to her creative soul, and become an artist. “Without the ability to actualize an idea or concept, art would not exist” says Nastya. She was so passionate that creativity occupied all her free time in the pandemic and the result is now clearly visible.
Nastya quickly established herself as a contemporary artist and her paintings have been well received within UAE homes and overseas. She found success in various commissioned projects in collaboration with local designers, has been featured in numerous exhibitions and showcased her works in galleries across Dubai.
“My favorite painting is the one I haven’t created yet. The journey is important,” says Nastya. Her style is full of movement and texture, often involving layered patterns and details, which adds depth and intricacy to each piece. The majority of her works today are abstract, fluid and mixed media paintings, but her subject matter is nature. Her landscape paintings are varied, mesmerizing and calm.
She does not try to illustrate the story, but rather evoke a mood and create a pleasant atmosphere. In many of her works, she depicts interpreted seascapes, sunsets and abstractions on a sea-theme. And her floral paintings demand to be examined. Using liquid acrylic paint, she creates floral motifs with interesting and visually organic patterns in her signature style.
