Ep: 40 - Anastasiya Tarasenko - An Undeniable Truth
Ep: 40 Anastasiya Tarasenko - An Undeniable Truth
Humanist, Feminist, Hedonist, Painter! Anastasiya Tarasenko asks the hard brazen questions. Her thickly painted oil on copper paintings are unique and provocative. She employs a personalized and undeniable symbolic imagery that shares a simultaneously dark and humorous, specific yet universal, reduced yet refined commentary on existence.
Her fascinating vacillation between the macro and micro world views allows her to both appreciate and reconcile the ultimate dichotomy- That to exist- Is to live in contradiction with ones self.
Listen to this candid conversation as Marshall and Sophia and Anastasiya delve into all of the juicy stuff- sex, religion, morality, capitalism, and of course art!
Check out her solo show in Boston right now until the end of February 29, 2020 at Steven Zevitas Gallery
