Marina Petrova (b.1982) is the russian artist. The main medium are oil paints, acrylic and texture. Marina Petrova positions herself as an artist who shows in her work all facets of the female nature and their position in society.Marina Petrova studied at the graphic arts department of the Cherepovets state university. She lived in India for several years, studying local culture and religion. And already there she saw and felt the unequal attitude of society and men towards women. Also, communicating with people from different countries, she saw that this problem is relevant for women of any country and nationality. And she could not help expressing her attitude to this problem in her work.Support, self-love and confidence are the main goals and calls of her work.
Oil, acrylic and texture are the tools i work with. I paint pictures for 4-10 hours almost every day. Sometimes it is born instantly, sometimes difficult and painful. But each time is a complete dedication! I passionately want to support women who are insecure, self-conscious and reluctant to accept their body through my paintings.
Just a few days ago, a magnificent fair in Ankara ended, in which artists from 30 countries of the world took part, and Russia was the guest of honor there. The exhibition was visited by more than 60,000 guests, it was an incredible and emotional event, and I was part of this event.
