Anna Fromchenko

Living and working in Tel Aviv, Israel. I paint primarily in series, using ink and acrylic on large canvases. My work explores the way we perceive and are affected by icons of power and are motivated by a political-critical thinking. Each of my works is inspired by a specific event or persona. I seek to explore the metaphysical power of objects or persons through manipulations of composition, color, and size. An image that at first glance looks banal is transformed into the sublime, spiritual and mythological, yet I want the paintings to hold onto their own expressiveness.
