Exhibition Olga Shea "Insomnia" (Insomnia)

Olga Shi creates delicate and sophisticated interior panels using several techniques at once. This is a textile collage, hand-made silk-screen printing, drawing, graphics.

The collage uses a variety of textures and colors, which gives the work volume. Silkscreen printing has a secondary role, but at the same time gives the work graphic. It complements and clarifies, focuses on what has already been said with the help of a collage.

The result is a multilayer panel, where each layer, despite the difference, complements each other and creates a complete impression.

At the exhibition "Insomnia" or insomnia, 16 works in the author’s art are presented. Multilayer and decorative, they create a new sense of reality, immersing the viewer in refracting textures, as if in a kaleidoscope. As in a dream, everything is possible here. The spirit of travel, the faces of cities, holographic interchanges, denim swift skyscrapers, fantastic forest animals and even the fragrance of spring magnolia.

You can meet a knitted roof, or knitted waves running ashore. Woolen blends convey the tenderness and warmth of nature, the mixing of various fabrics - creates a motley pulsating industrial landscape, a luminous stream of machines. The energetic works of the author are both intriguing, attractive, exciting and soothing. Manifesting through bright, exciting colors and textures, enhanced by contrasting graphics.
