Description
Gargoyle tree, prunus padus, polypodiopsia, green algae, microcamera, lichen.

A new series of Taisia Korotkova, Imagined Destinations, consists of watercolors that combine different kind of scientific objects, green power plants, mushrooms, reptiles, plants, birds, AI, and men. Taisia also paint micro species which usually aren’t seen by the human eye, but play an important role within the Earth’s
ecosystem. She enlarge them to make them visible, to show their significance in a planet’s life, their beauty and diversity.
Taisia Korotkova try to imagine a world that has learned to live without the use of fossil fuels, in which man has ceased to feel like the center of the universe, in which the nature and condition of the Earth are carefully protected. In a sense, this can be called terraforming our own planet.

Russian Federation  • 1980

Presentation

Born in Moscow in 1980, the painter and graphic artist Taisia Korotkova works on the subjects of relationships between human society and science, industry and contemporary technologies and also its influence on human life and ecology.

Before starting her work Taisia Korotkova usually does research, collects materials, meets specialists and scientists, which work is connected with the investigated topic.

One of the main techniques of Korotkova is an egg-tempera on gesso, on a wooden panel. It’s important for an artist that the technique of painting she uses complies with a natural perception of the human eye, when saturation and volume are connected directly with a luminosity. This technique allows her to play a game with time: Korotkova paints the events of the present like the deep past, constructing the sight from the future and showing the fast ageing of the new technologies. Also she works with etching, drawing and watercolor.

The most important for Taisia Korotkova is to formulate the questions, to open the discussions and create a composition without ready answers. Korotkova finds the subjects of her pictures in real life or composes them based on the real events. In 21-th century, in the ocean of information, an artist can find, analyse, choose, mix and show significant subjects. Exactly in this manner, Korotkova works on her projects, which include many different aspects of contemporary life.

Her works are part of the collections of Moscow Museum of Modern Art, State Tretyakov Gallery Moscow, Uppsala Konstmuseum, Uppsala commun, Republic of Austria, IRRA Moscow, German Titov’s collection, Smirnov & Sorokin Foundation. Participant of Utopia Lille 3000, “Novacene” project.

She lives and works in Milan.
