Our Lady Of Vladimir – Collage

Besides the specific artistic expression of those works made in College, the author of the presented works tried (as far as she was able to) to follow the basic contours of the standardized rules of iconography in wood, bone, metal, linen.

Iconography itself demands such characteristics as humility, equanimity, and delitescence in an iconographer. A careful eye can perceive these characteristics in elementary constellations of colour, lines, and physiognomy of bodies, which almost completely lack typical anthropological proportions: weight, height (for instance, such apparently (un)usual relations between extremities are most evident in the ancient Coptic icons: Bishop Holy Menas with Jesus, Bavit (Egypt), 6th century).
