Chuvash Still Life | Nature morte tchouvache | Чувашский натюрморт Painting by Nelly Akchurina

«A tendency toward a large graphic form with contours, silhouettes, symbolic spaces – This is the essence of the artistic thinking of Akchurina, a monumental, epic and festive perception of the world.»
— Svetlana Ignatenko, art critic
