Instinct or Aspiration to Symmetry
This body of work, "Instinct or Aspiration to Symmetry", is a series of works where, by revelation of a natural image, the artist uses the black sand of Ostia, Italy (known for its high iron content), as the main material. The triptych has been created intuitively, generalised and inspired by the sea and the blood vessels of our own human body’s. It is a search for symmetries in the vast fields of biomorphic forms. At the basis of the work is a classical concept of forms which are created by the forces of nature itself. The poetic intuition vital for creation of Katia’s art works transforms them into natural organisms that make up a living environment.
Katia Pugach is a Russian artist who has been residing in Rome (Italy) for the last 10 years. Katia’s artistic principle is to make a gesture and to leave a sign as a reminder of her life’s past experiences. She continues to develop her art in different forms, that include paintings, installations, bio art, conceptual photo projects, balance performing and sculptures. In more recent years she has spent increased time focusing on paintings and experiments with new techniques and materials. Katia's most recent important works are based on technique of the application of volcanic black sand on surface. Foundation of her work is a classical concept of forms which are created by the forces of nature itself. It is a type of visual metaphor, in which nature encourages the human desire to achieve order, balance, unity and symmetry. Works of Katia Pugach are presented in the permanent collection of the Moscow Museum of Modern Art (Petrovka 25), Moscow Multimeia Art Museum.
