Eye of Oppression Peinture par Alina Mar

I was born in Siberia in the cold gloomy 90s. All throughout my teenage years my main pastime was going to an art school several times a week. It was then that sketching, drawing and learning became natural components of my life. After high school I moved to Spain and spent the following years in search of new experiences and the right place to be. I tried various possible career options, but none of them found application, so I (naturally) drifted back to drawing, when I eventually realized that what I was actually looking for was a proper way of self-expression. In fact, I've come to think that this need lies at the core of human nature, and that it's our right and duty to stand by our beliefs. Unfortunately, judging by what I've heard from other people, it's not a common tendency. I believe that the current capitalist system has imposed a great deal of pressure of conformity on people, so to have us all organized and under control. And that system would've been justifiable if it simply didn't dehumanize us and didn't devalue our natural aspirations and need for personal growth. I try to address this kind of issues in my paintings, as they're the main moving force behind my urge for self-expression. In most of my paintings I aim to object to some of the commonly held false assumptions and, that way, to stress the need to bring back common sense and human individuality. I am in a constant search of clear and relevant ways of reflecting that in my work.
