Artist (Photography)
Born 1979

My name is Yana Zerkalova.
I was born 13/08/1979 in Sukhumi -- the capital of former state of Abkhazia, Georgia at
present . In the 1991, after war in Abkhazia i moved to Greece and then to Ukraine, now I live in Ukraine. I am Russian and I speak russian and english. I present myself as an independent international photo-artist.
My art-photo is my only sight of the world.
I have experience as an architect, interior designer , furniture designer, clothes designer, designer of small architectural forms, stylist and visagiste. I studied architecture in the Architectural Institute and I worked as designer for five years in different design studios in Odessa. Five years ago I have left the architecture and design career and got engaged in a photography. The photography enables me to feel internal creative freedom.

First exhibition was in a museum of Western and East Art in Odessa

Second exhibition was in the children's rehabilitation center " the
House of an angel " in the city of Odessa --- 2006. "Egypt - Ritsumi"

.Beauty and self-sufficiency of these works introduce you the life and objects of ancient Egypt culture. [...]
....................Beauty and self-sufficiency of these works introduce you the life and objects of ancient Egypt culture. Aestheticism and play with architectural sculptural constructions, which have become the symbols of human civilization long ago, influence world civilization integrally. The author interprets beauty and self-sufficiency of antiquity as correlation to detachment, abstractness of heat, when the sense melts, passes to another, deeper sense level.Symbols of eternity and importance of art culture gain the quality of background implication, which are only to illuminate irreality of existence........

....................It turns out that to live as easily as in the history textbook is not so difficult. That is why one wants to revert to the interpretations: they have more affectation and probably foreboding of evil, prediction that the ice of abstraction and symbols easily becomes sizzler, and also because a person setting forth in search of exotica often is unable to understand and should not notice the authenticity of people, whose existence still complies with customs and nothing more.That is the reason why photos by Yana Zerkalova engender great amount of associative steps, which, to the authors’ surprise, are created by real world.............
Uta Kilter (critic).



Exhibited works make up two parts, main one is “ritsumi”. It is the traditional Japanese technique going back to the Dark Ages and used mainly in the book graphic arts of Kamakur period. The sense of “ritsumi” is in unique “reanimation” of stationary picture, achieved by interaction between the colours with different wave characteristics or elements, photographed from short distances. Double images create microfilm, which is the one to reveal the real context of the photo. For example, the Pyramids eternal immobility of which is, as a result, “debunked” with flickering effect, or portrait of a woman in Nefertiti’s attire, whose gesticulation makes the image of stately queen somewhat simpler.
Monochrome photos are made in the spirit of the beginning of the twenties century and reflect measured of settled deliberation of the contemporary Egyptians’ way of life.
The author underlines that the presented photos does not have for an object to insult national shrines or religion of Egypt.

…………............Красота и самодостаточность работ знакомит с жизнью и объектами древней культуры – страны Египет. Эстетствование и игра с уже ставшими символами человеческой цивилизации архитектурно скульптурными строениями, ныне достранно до обостренности легли на общецивилизационную ситуацию в мире.
Красота и самодостаточность древности интерпретируется автором как сопоставление отстраненности, абстрактности жарой спекой, когда смысл оплавляется – переходит в свое иное смысловое дно.
Символы вечности и ценности культуры искусства обретают качество подтекста фон, которым суждено лишь подсвечивать – выявлять ирреальность бытия……………..

……………..........Жить просто, как в иллюстрациях к монографии учебника по истории, оказывается уже сложно, поэтому уже хочется вернуться к интерпретациям—там больше наигранности, возможно предчувствие беды, предсказания того, что лед абстракций и символов легко становиться жарынью, а отправляясь в путешествие за экзотикой, человек часто не может понять и не должен замечать подлинность жизни людей, чье бытие по прежнему подчинено обычаю и ничему больше.
Поэтому фотографии Яны Зеркаловой порождают массу ассоциативных шагов, неожиданно для автора, рождаемых реальным миром.
Ута Кильтер.


Выставленные работы составляют две части,
главная из которых – "рицуми". Это традиционная японская
техника, восходящая к раннему средневековью и применявшаяся, в
основном, в книжной графике периода Камакура. Смысл "рицуми"
заключается в своеобразном «оживлении» неподвижной картинки,
которое достигается за счет взаимодействия цветов с различными
волновыми характеристиками, либо элементов, сфотографированных с
близких точек. Двойные изображения дают микрофильм, который и
раскрывает истинный сюжет фотографии. Например, египетские
пирамиды, вековая неподвижность которых в результате оказывается
«развенчанной» мерцающим эффектом, или портрет женщины в уборе
Нефертити, чья жестикуляция несколько опрощает образ величавой
царицы.
Монохромные снимки выполнены в духе начала двадцатого века и
отражают размеренную неторопливость быта современных египтян.
Автор подчеркивает, что представленные фотографии не имеют цель
оскорбить национальные святыни либо религию Египта.
