Feminine body, part 2 (2019) Painting by Aleksandra Antonova

Having studied Linguistics at the university, now language of facial expression, gesture, and pose interest me so much. Art always existed inseparably from languages and Linguistics. It is a continuation of speech and verbal communication, even inner thoughts. The limits of language communication gave further impulse to start expressing myself visually, connecting  to my artistic nature and exploring the connection between Linguistics and art. 

Being a linguist it is very important for me to travel - I have visited and stayed long-term in countries of Asia, Europe and in the USA. Every time I visit new place I am stunned and surprised by blooming nature, local gentle attitude towards natural habitat. That’s why a lot of my paintings are about human interaction with the world around us. I notice slight shades of color, the play of light and shadow.
