Beware of the Grass (2018) Sculpture by Kseniya Oudenot

I am a Ukrainian born British artist living and working in Paris and London. Through a convergence of interest in nature, science and time perception; my art explores the allegorical resonance and fantasy involved in man-made, altered nature and the juxtaposition of time within our society.

Trained in academic painting, I moved to the UK to study Performance Design at St. Martins College. My early design career creations utilized high tech materials and were exhibited at the Science Museum in London, the Science Gallery in Dublin, and showcased on BBC and Sky.

I am award-winning designer with works ranging from fine art to theatre costumes and high fashion. My creations have been featured at the London’s Royal Opera House, Scottish Ballet and the fashion house Alexander McQueen. My background influences are frequently spotted in the dramatic shapes, rich textures and bold use of contrasting components.

As of last year, I started developing into a multidisciplinary artist and created a vast body of sculptures, paintings, drawings and art installations. My works allow for great versatility and an exciting viewer experience as the gaze expose the multiple layers that characterize mixed media art.

My fine art signature is the use of small ephemeral particles, both natural and man-made materials, sand, glitter, crushed rocks, leaves, flowers, beads or dust as a reminder of time passing, dust storms sweeping away memories and feeling of change emerging.

Hailed as the “Best New Talent” by The Wall Street Journal, Vogue and many other publications, I am now focusing on creating fine art.
