Sonorous, bright colors, recognizable motifs of birch groves and flowering meadows along the banks of rivers excite memories of careless summer walks, events from distant childhood, about the winged youth and native lands.
The theme of his native Russian land is particularly interesting Svetlana Alekseevna, a number of works the artist associated with Russian folklore, in which the name of the picture –a proverb or saying. The paintings themselves are written in a laconic language, originating in folk art – bright pure colors, simple compositions, stylized image.
A special direction in the work of Svetlana Konstantinova – "symbolic compositions", as they are called by the artist herself. In them, it touches on the intimate and philosophical themes, forcing you to think and focus on the soul-stirring aspects of life. The small format forces to come close to a cloth, to remain alone with a picture, to plunge into a subject and to conduct silent dialogue with the author.
It is difficult to say in what specific manner Svetlana Alekseevna writes, she does not stop at the achieved results and boldly experiments, applying various styles in her work. One of the successful experiments – "geometric compositions", their creation was inspired by the author of cubism and pop art. These are interesting and bright works in which plastic, rhythm and verified composition set the mood.
Each round in the work of Svetlana Konstantinova is a successful search for yourself in contemporary art.
