Annya Sand's "Expressions From Kazakhstan" exhibition has taken place in Kings Road Gallery in Chelsea, London, where she presented her latest collection that has been influenced by her native Kazakhstan, especially in terms of colour and some of the intense jewel like CLUSTERS that appear on the canvas.
Annya brings a fresh insight into contemporary abstract landscape paintings, giving an expressive elemental drama to the canvas through the use of light and layers. Annya Sand's artwork creates feelings of "being within the landscape" and recognises the invisible force that give a place a mysterious and powerful atmosphere.
Paintings such as "Deep" and "Reflection" give a clear understanding of Annya's relationship with colour and its implosive effect on the canvas. One senses the mystical magic that lies beneath - there is an ephemeral quality about her work that is truly harmonious. |
