We present Tatiana Ogilvie-Stasevich\u2019s solo exhibition \u201cShaken, Not Stirred\u201d<\/strong>. The exhibition, with its evocative and ironic title, brings together two series of the artist\u2019s works. \u00a0<\/p>\n

The first series comprises animal-themed collages made from labels. Torn and chaotically arranged, the labels serve as a canvas while simultaneously forming the image of a character.\u00a0
In today\u2019s world, a label is not only a means of visually identifying a product, but also an object of scientific study and a work of art. Amid the abundance of goods on store shelves, labels have become something commonplace to us. But what if we were to view a label as a medium, as a new form through which the artist conveys her message?<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cSometimes, after a significant event, people keep a bottle of alcohol from the festive table as a memento. For example, some people preserve a bottle of champagne from their wedding as a symbol of family happiness. I came up with the idea of creating pictures from labels associated with memorable occasions. The cleaned bottles go for recycling, while the labels go on the wall as a collage.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

In her works, the artist seeks to draw the viewer\u2019s attention away from the label\u2019s original purpose\u2014to attract the buyer\u2019s eye to a product and sell it. The only product that can now be sold is perhaps the work of art itself.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
The second series on display consists of antipode paintings. Antipodes are non-identical reflections of one another, impossible to align in space yet unable to exist without each other. Each landscape in this series can be rotated 180 degrees and viewed from bottom to top or from top to bottom.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cThese are not reversible pictures in which turning the canvas produces a different interpretation of the image. These are two paintings on a single canvas.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The works depict landscapes: atmospheric English gardens and parks, and fragments of buildings.<\/p>\n
