ABOUT ANYA MYAGKIKH

Anya Myagkikh was born in Moscow, in Russia, in 1991. She graduated from the Chelsea College of Art and Design, at the University of the Arts, London, UK, in 2014. Her works have been displayed in CCB — Centro Cultural de Belém, in Lisbo; in Casa Batlló in Barcelona, in the Four Seasons of Lisbon, the Bulgari Hotel & Residences London and Katara Foundation in Qatar, together with several art galleries in London, New York, Tokyo, Miami and Moscow. The paintings, installations and sculptures of Anya are just like herself, built with remarkable taste and quality. As an artist, she constantly seeks the spirit and the soul of the images she sees and immediately fills with love and gratitude. “An important medium to my work is kitsch, which I use so that I bring out strong emotions in the viewer. I like kitsch aesthetics with its bright colours, its over-doneness, and its glittery childishness.”

EXHIBITION Russian Kitch

Anya Myagkikh

Curated by Francisco Lacerda

The kitsch style appeared in late 19th century, but in the 20th Century, with the creation of Pop Art, specially by Andy Wharol and Roy Lichtenstein, kitsch became an important vehicle as art style, as media, and as theme, among a big number of artists, generally associated with European or American culture. The selection of works Unconscious that we present from Anya´s art collection, are a representation of emotions and graphic elements, with scratching and rubbing silhouettes into the fabric. The use of this unconventional material used to make napper on, is almost unique in the world, because she almost self-portraits her emotions, traditions, memories and personality in one single round work.

Molecules of Imagination by Anya Myagkikh

“Molecules of imagination” - is an abstract painting project, where I am trying to imagine how molecules of imagination could look, if they existed. I am fascinated by biology and molecular structures of cells, but my molecules of imagination are very different to the ones you find in our body – they are abstract, they are imaginary.I am drawing them very freely, without a lot of thinking - imagination can never be forced. Using bright colours throughout in order to help me achieve more of the unreal effect - in your imagination everything is brighter. Visual inspirations for the project are Miro and Kandinsky with their shapes and colours. Molecules of imagination are happy but calm, they are free flowing and colourful. I want people to look at them and engage their imagination. I want to spread creativity.

Molecules by Susana Ataide

The uniqueness of movement. We are giants and we are tiny. We are beautiful and ugly. We are the most and we are the least. We are who speaks, and we are who hears. We are the color white and we are the color black. We are the light and we are the darkness. We are the day and we are the night. We are the sun and we are the rain. We are the movement. We unleash the guillotines and we lose ourselves to find ourselves in an ethereal space to lose ourselves again. We gravitate, we float between grimaces of astonishment and smiles of complicity. Time ceases to be time and the movement dictates the compass of our journey. We walked, rolled, jumped, and momentarily became static. In acceleration or slow motion, we are free, we are everything and we are nothing, we are the movement of the imagination.

There is an unrealistic moving through Anya Myagkikh paintings. In fact we can imagine the move, the joy, the sadness, the fear all kind of human sensations if we let our look flying. Painting is a travel to our feelings.

Molecules by Maria José Lourenço

Atoms and molecules surround us. These molecules are functional, have architecture, are made up of atoms distributed in space and occupy their own places. These atoms are linked to each other by special affinities and empathies. These interactions explain the formation of molecules. And molecules are not alone, they are not abandoned. They interact energetically with each other. And this attitude of attraction or rejection, of liking to be closer or further away from each other explains their reactivity and physical state: solid, liquid, or gas. Our concept of molecule reproduces images. The vital water to life is H2O. But it could be ice, liquid water or steam! Please imagine.

Human relations are measured by its affinity. So is the reactivity between molecules.And when some molecules break down to build others we say that a chemical reaction has happened. Chemistry is the science of transformations and emotions!

And the neighbours? Sometimes there is no mixing. It's like olive oil and water. And the explanation are the molecules.

The chemist takes the molecules to the laboratory, makes experiments, creates new molecules. Imagination also.

Love is like that! Fluids in endless motions. Hormones, very clever little molecules which control our body and mind. All this moves, collides and produces conflicts. A whirlwind of molecules, in a dance full of colour, harmony and happiness.

It is not easy to understand this simple process which can be complex. To solve the mysteries that go around there is a Table of named Periodic. A fantastic collection of special elements very well organized.

Exclusive is the intimacy of molecules in their essence: perfumes, paints, wine, fibers, gasolines, metals, glues, drugs, anesthetics ... they have private, unique molecules. We feel them!
