Dr Natalia Jezova is awards wining, multidisciplinary artist based in London. She achieved her Professional Doctorate in Fine Art at the University of East London in 2021.
Natalia communicates through a wide variety of media, including film, photography and installation. Her art addresses cultural memory, identity and gender issues. Natalia's artworks are multi-layered, containing their own secrets that viewers are invited to discover. As Natalia says: “What could be more enchanting than a mystery? I suppose, only the love for the mystery and the quest which one embarks on in trying to solve it.”
A few years ago, Natalia's vision had started to drastically deteriorate. Now she can see only the blurry silhouettes with the double vision effect. This was one of the reasons why Natalia started to use the superimposition technique (in which two images are simultaneously visible over each other) in her art practice. Natalia decided to show how she sees the world around her – a blurry multiple silhouettes.
Natalia's work is never quite what first appears to be. Her images depict meticulously controlled compositions characterised by a classical aesthetic, tinged with poetic undertones of timeless desire and romantic. In all her projects, Natalia employs metaphorical or symbolic language to address the underlying forces behind the themes explored in her works. She mixes classical and modern aspects; blur the lines between imagination, reality and memory.
Most of Natalia's artworks have been placed in numerous private collections internationally.
