ARTBOX.PROJECT New York 1.0 Verena Terekina

How to describe me and my art? Easy. My work is explained by itself: Nothing is more important than the people and their stories/fates, portrayed in sheer faces/figures and/or authentic interpretation. While this process of drawing nothing else matters. Neither the origin nor religion of someone. Therefore I shut down all insignificant systems. This obtained freedom allows me to encourage each imagination with using sarcasm and different languages. I found my earliest approach in becoming an artist, by my grandfather, who shared the love and freedom of drawing with me. Egon Schiele, Salvador Dalí, Gottfried Helnwein, Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio, Jules De Brycker and Michael Fuchs are my biggest inspirations from the rather known. But even a big part of my inspiration, are nameless artists, musicians, actors, street performers and creators of all kind, who crossed my paths not only during my travels through Europe.
