With a vigorous brush stroke, Larissa Strunowa paints without taboos or prejudices human bodies working with transparencies and contrasting colors. Using only the basic principles of body representation – the contour and color – the artist evokes the nude without showing it completely and detaches itself from the purely realistic representation.
The mysterious universe of her works, both disturbing and fascinating, gives to voluptuous silhouettes a captivating aura. Due to the sculptural appearance of the bodies, the magnified postures and the chosen environment, some works plunge us into scenes inspired by reinvented legends and mythologies.
The works of Larissa Strunowa are all facets of her mind. It is rare to be able to perceive with such clarity the profound thoughts of an artist; Perhaps it is possible because Larissa is a full-fledged, uncensored and unstated soul.
