Abstract

  • Photographer
    Irina Cheremisina

Being constantly inspired by abstract art of Helen Frankenthaler, I decided to create an abstract photo series like a remembering of my childhood dream to become a painter. I used "camera blur" as an artistic effect and very simple things-objects that surround us in everyday life (clothespins, laces, plastic folks, spools of thread etc). Like a child who can create toys from everything around, I was "drawing" my photos in abstract style.

Irina Cheremisina is a visual artist based in Valencia, Spain. Born in Ukraine, she was obliged to leave her native country when the war began in 2022. An economist by profession, Irina was always passionate about art, photography and handmade, but she found her professional calling in visual art only after moving to Spain. Irina works across photography and collage. She is an active participant of international photography exhibitions and photography awards. Together with other photographers her works were published in “100 Contemporary Ukrainian Photographers” book.
