Triptych, canvas, acrylic, decorative plaster, 2025

This triptych is a visual exploration of the nature of the soul immersed in the cycle of material existence. The work is inspired by the philosophy of Vaishnavism, where samsara is a cycle of births and deaths in which the soul forgets its originally divine nature.

The composition uses acrylic, texture, and verses from Vedic scriptures applied to the central element of the work. The symbolic language is built on gradients of light and darkness, vertical flows, and the interaction of the material with the spiritual. Visual transitions from black to white reflect the path of spiritual transformation and awakening.

Although the triptych is based on the Vedic tradition, its philosophical structure is universal: the ideas of rebirth, the memory of the soul, the illusory nature of the material world and the desire for liberation are repeated in different religious and philosophical systems.
This work is not about religion, but about the human desire to remember one's true nature and go beyond the visible.

Canvas #1 (black)

The Vedas say that the soul is originally full of knowledge, eternity and bliss (sat-chit-ananda), but when it finds itself in the material world, it forgets its true nature. Rebirths follow one another, covering the consciousness with a veil of ignorance, and only by the grace of the Lord is awakening possible.

"Samsara. Ignorance of the Material World"
50x50 cm

This work is a symbol of the path of the soul that has descended into the material world, where the modes of passion and ignorance prevail. In the beginning, there is pitch darkness, a state when the living entity completely identifies himself with the body and worldly desires. But even in this state, according to Srimad-Bhagavatam, the grace of the Lord is able to awaken the soul. A flash of light is the moment when the realization first arises in the heart that everything that surrounds is only a temporary illusion. Gradually the darkness recedes, glimmers of pure consciousness appear, until at the end of the path there is nothing left but pure light. This process may take thousands of lifetimes, but one day each soul will return to its source.

Canvas #2 (black and white)

"Samsara. Divine nature of the soul."

50x50 cm

This canvas reflects the eternal essence of our soul. Despite the materiality of the body, the soul is immortal, indestructible and divine in nature, being a part of the Lord.
When the soul knows the truth and begins to serve God, it is freed from the cycle of birth and death. It no longer experiences suffering, returns to God and abides in the eternal world, where there is no pain, only love and harmony.

Canvas #3 (white)

"Samsara. Path of the Soul."

50x100 cm

This work is built as a path. Hand calligraphy with shlokas from the Bhagavad Gita, Katha Upanishads and Srimad Bhagavatam (sacred Indian scriptures) is inscribed on the surface of the canvas not as decoration, but as a narrative - a spiritual route told in the language of sacred texts.

The first part of the shlokas speaks of the divine nature of the soul: eternal, radiant, full of knowledge and joy. Then, moving on to the next level, the text reveals how the soul, turning away from God, plunges into the illusion of the material world - into the circle of samsara, where birth, death and suffering replace each other endlessly. And finally, the final lines bring hope and truth: only by the grace of God can a living being remember its original nature and return to Him, going beyond the temporary and false.

Shlokas become not just words - they work as vibration, as breath. Their textured weaving into layers of acrylic and decorative plaster creates the feeling of a living field in which every word sounds and pulsates. Text and material interact, forming a multi-layered structure in which spirit and form are one.

This work is an invitation to silence, to contemplation, to an internal dialogue. This is not an image, but an experience of recognition: of yourself, your nature, your path.

Marina Letti (Petrova, born 1982) is a Russian artist. She was born and works in Cherepovets. She studied at the art and graphic department of Cherepovets State University.Marina works with the theme of self-identification as a woman and a person, having gone through denial and rejection of her body and essence. Drawing on the experience of living in a male monastery in India and an attempt to suppress the feminine nature in herself, the artist faced many internal conflicts that began to destroy her from the inside, and subsequently influenced the choice of the direction of the subject of her work.

Since 2021, she has been a regular participant in group exhibitions, including international ones. Her paintings are in the private collection of Rossotrudnichestvo of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Ankara (Turkey) and in Russia. Since 2024, she has been studying with art curator and art critic Maria Sedoshenko on the program "Introduction to the Theory and Practice of Contemporary Art". 

Three years of living in a male monastery in India, completely immersed in spirituality, became an invaluable experience for me, where I went through different stages of rejecting myself as a woman, not accepting my body and considering myself inferior to men simply by the fact of birth. Having encountered certain dogmas that dictated to me external angles of internal self-perception, I eventually rejected most of them, and began to collect myself piece by piece. Directly living through such an experience formed the basis for choosing the topic of self-identification, which I have been studying for 4 years now. 

Working now on a series about internal traumas, I take my entire life - from childhood to the present moment. In my research, I look for the beginning, and trace how my parents and the opinion of society reflected on my development, and how life in the monastery influenced me. Asking questions - who am I? What does it mean to be a woman in our world, and where can I find support? - I do not focus only on myself. I suggest that the viewer ask these questions themselves, turning to themselves from within.My art goes through experiments with different mediums. In addition to the usual acrylic and oil, I work with fabric, threads, use thorns, wood, paper, wax, etc. Many of my works are characterized by cuts and punctures - inflicted internal wounds require their detection, and then overcoming the pain and restoring their integrity by stitching with threads. Depicting a naked body, I very directly show how defenseless and vulnerable a woman can be in front of society. With the help of texture and three-dimensional works made from plaster bandages, papier-mâché and other materials, I overcome the space of the canvas to further immerse the viewer in the work, give a more tactile perception, show the fragility of human nature.
