Girl unwinding hair (2022) Painting by Liuba Zdor

As a child I attended art school and then graduated from university as a graphic designer. But painting has always been my passion. Now I live in Central Asia, Tajikistan. And here I find a lot of inspiring things for my new paintings every day and everywhere.

These are a few words about my art style.

I have always been attracted to hand-made craft little things that preserve the traditions of folk culture. I believe that the best souvenir you can bring from a trip is something like that, bought at the local flea market. At some point, because of this hobby, I gathered a small collection of amusing ceramics, where each piece has its own unique shape and a different décor, often an ornament. I admired my treasures and wanted so much my artwork to look more like such a wild collection or a casket with gems, where the stones in it are not precious, but semi-precious. So that it reflects the traditional flavor, the beauty of identity, sometimes contrasted with modernity, and sometimes even disappearing.
