Vertu - Nadjejda Gilbert
Nadjejda has chosen to work with portraits, because they are extraordinary vehicles for ideas and emotions. She particularly enjoys establishing a connection with the viewer through the eyes of her characters. Isn't it said that the eyes are the reflection of the soul?
In a figurative style with an abstract touch, she uses both acrylic paint and collage techniques to create her works. She constructs texts and chooses words on subjects that inspire her and integrates them into her painting.
