About The Artwork
Crafted as an accumulation of representations of floral elements surrounding an inverted face of a plastic doll, this unique piece by Natasha Lelenco is simultaneously an anthropomorphic portrait, a floral composition, and a still life. The starting point is the visual recovery of a lost doll from the author's childhood, her favorite doll, which she had baptized as "octombrina" in reference to the month of October, when the author was born, and also to the national significance that the month of October held in Soviet Moldavian popular culture regarding the October Revolution. The artwork reflects on the circumstantial and anecdotal nature of cultural and historical narratives, as well as on the ephemeral as something shared by the natural and the cultural and political realms.

Chisinau, 1982. Moldovan artist based in Spain. My approach is figurative and revolves around mainly human themes: metanarratives, death, value, subjectivity, family, among others. I like to approach them from a playful plastic game of repetitions, juxtapositions of colors, deformations in favor of psychological realism, and arbitrary use of elements and resources that I have in my studio. One of the constants in my work is the creation of panels, which, through the repetitive use of representations make a narrative. The visual element of repetition, particularly in the form of portraits, is a graphic obsession for me that captures a world where seriality is a defining feature. These pieces address themes such as death, tempus fugit, obsolescence, using a vibrant color palette inspired by folk art, advertising and Kitsch. The final image is a colorful and humorous antithesis.
