Alena Sharypa / Алена Шарыпа
Alena Sharypa has never been keen on formal experiments. “I am attracted to everything beautiful that can be expressed through painting – flowers and things, nature and architecture, people’s faces. My main objective is to recognize and to express the beauty of the surrounding world…” she says. Alena Sharypa manages to combine the beauty of architecture and nature in her canvases. Quite often the architecture becomes a peculiar dominant determining the entire composition. But there are exceptions. Sometimes the architectural motive doesn't play such a significant role; it seems to unite with nature into a unique and powerful torrent.
