Anna Kolosova
Artist in Residence
October 1 — October 22, 2023
Anna Kolosova is a contemporary London-based artist. Her practice is painting in an 'expanded field', experimenting with materials, dimensions and life itself. She makes abstract, mixed-media, performative in nature works with elements of text and found images or objects. Anna's style of image-making 'quotes' classical art in a very 'contemporary' urban fashion. Her inspiration comes from her synesthetic visions of sound, smell, touch, spiritual experiences, romantic encounters and in-stu situations.
Anna is an internationally exhibited artist, having held exhibitions in London, Milan, Dusseldorf, Moscow as well as being featured in The Guardian, Cosmopolitan and Vogue.
Anna Kolosova
Anna Kolosova is a contemporary artist, living and working in London, UK.
Her practice is painting in an ‘expanded field’, experimenting with materials, dimensions and life itself. She makes abstract, mixed-media, performative in nature works with elements of text and found images or objects. Anna gravitates towards the urban styles but mixes those with the classical notions of painting, such as the Golden Ratio. She keeps her sketchbooks in her purse always to be able to sketch what she gets inspired by in situ, gathering momentum. Some of those sketches are a starting point to the journey into the larger works.
Anna has synaesthesia, so she paints sound, smells, numbers and text as 'seen' in colour. During her Synesthetic Action Painting performances, she explores that by directly responding to sound or smell, depicting the visions live in front of the audience, bridging the sensory gap for the voyeurs to enjoy her own private multi-sensory experience and reach sensual meditative states.
