Andriyanova Ekaterina (born in 1984) was born in the Kemerovo Region, in the city of Leninsk-Kuznetsky. She graduated from a general education and art school in 2001.
From 2001 to 2006, she studied at the Kemerovo Art School (KAS) in the painting department. From 2007 to 2009, she studied at the Stieglitz and Repin Academy, while also learning the craft of restoration in the workshop of Tatyana Vladimirovna Kulichenko, a top-level restorer, studying gilding, furniture restoration, and stucco molding.
“My works contain certain references to medieval painting practices, levkas- coated boards, tempera, and fresco transparency, along with distorted, reverse perspective, which speak to the importance of the depicted objects. The composition in this format speaks to the almost cult significance for me of the objects depicted from our porcelain collection, which are not only pleasant to use, slowing down time, but also, most importantly, to admire.”
Ekaterina Andrianova
“I look at them, they look at me» - this project is a kind of archivist of the moment, a fixer of unstable reality, the fragility of being, and the desire to preserve cultural layers. The objects of the image are windows, those that look at us through the openwork lace of window frames, elements of a passing history. Colored spots and drops emerge randomly on the surface of the image, as if they were foreign elements changing reality. Insects flock to these pictorial elements, and ants settle on the surface of the whitewash, carrying elements of the image to the corners.
For me, there is an inseparable connection between architecture and tableware.
Both of these parallels exist and complement each other. Both architecture and tableware are imprints of a certain era that will never be repeated. The task of people is to know history, preserve objects, and pass them on to the next generation. I set myself the task of depicting them in the form of a kind of portrait.”
