Images Οf Power And Aspects Of Romanticism in Aksiniya Misyuta’s Paintings

Yannis Kostarias, Art Verge, February 28, 2019

Employing techniques from different fields, Aksiniya Misyuta veers between figurative and abstract imagery, though avoiding depictions executed in pure abstraction. Often rendered with cubist attributes, the emerging artist‘s works are characterized by a geometrically stylized approach that conveys magnetism submerged in a dystopian environment. Without clear facial features, her obscure figures become articulate with the shadowy topological framework of the well managed space. Misyuta is a painter of voluptuous forms focused on situational portraiture, while her paintings are signified by their proportionally oversized or exaggerated figures. Regardless gender, the artist illustrates rough-textured gigantic appearances in an alluring way. Besides the bulky sizes, the enigmatic bodily development of significant geometry is providing alternative perspectives in the viewer’s eyes, underlining motion and rhythmic play.
