OBJECTS/MODULES

In the “Objects / Modules” series, Lena Solovyeva continues to experiment with metal as one of her most favorite materials. “The taming of the cold medium through a manual, multi-layered process that reveals the nature and importance of the material was of utmost importance to me. Stainless steel is one of the most durable and difficult materials to process. The collision of virtuoso polishing and “drawing” on metal in my work is deliberate. While they are in conflict, they are also closely related, and this contrasting comparison allows me to emphasize both the perfection and the differences of each technique”.
