Today I would like to turn to creativity Moscow artist Irina Kotova, and with her eyes to show the amazing transformation of the surrounding world through the Art Nouveau style.
Each painting by Irina is an original combination of modern lyrics and picturesque Art Nouveau, where there is nothing superfluous - everything is laconic, bright and stylish. The unusually refined heroines of the artist's canvases, like aliens, attract the viewer and carry away into the fantastic sensual world of dreams and mysticism.
The color scheme, very subtly and harmoniously matched to each work, as well as the stylization of images and objects, made the author's handwriting of Irina Kotora recognizable and unique.
Modern is a trend in applied art, as well as in architecture of the late 19th - early 20th centuries. The main feature of which is constructiveness, clean lines, laconicism and integrity of forms. Modernism is not characterized by sharp angles and clearly defined straight lines, they are very smooth and curved, very close to the natural forms of the plant world.
