Anna Belan is a theater artist, painter, and illustrator. She was born in 1978. She began engaging in creativity early; since childhood, she drew and attended art school, graduating from the Moscow Art School of Applied Arts, textile design department. She then graduated from the theater and production department of the Moscow Art Theater School named after V.I. Nemirovich-Danchenko, specializing as a costume designer.
During her studies, she interned in England and participated in a project at the World Exhibition of Scenography and Theater Architecture "Prague Quadrennial".
After completing her studies, she worked for several years on film projects at the Mosfilm film studio and the M. Gorky film studio.
Since 2011, she has worked in Moscow theaters. She worked at the Moscow P.N. Fomenko Theater for more than 7 years.
A passion for theater and the beauty of stage costumes influenced her choice of artistic path. Theater education helps her masterfully work on the characters of her paintings, thoughtfully developing their image. Working with art materials, Anna strives for detail and realism, conveying the richness of forms, textures, and the play of light.
In her series of works, the artist explores memory, recreating a fragmentary mosaic of personal memories and images.
She draws on childhood experience, sorting through it and filtering it through the prism of the cultural context of her upbringing.
Through visual narrative, she reveals the intimate world of childhood experiences which, despite their personal nature, acquire a universal resonance. Her series not only document subjective experience but also create a space for dialogue with the viewer, allowing them to discover echoes of their own memories and emotional states associated with the early stages of life in the presented works.
Anna Belan is a member of the Union of Artists of Russia and a member of the Moscow Union of Artists.
She is engaged in exhibition activities and teaches at the Russian Institute of Theatre Arts (GITIS).
She participates in Russian and international exhibitions, joint and personal projects. Her works are held in the State Central Theatre Museum named after A. A. Bakhrushin, the Russian State Library of Arts, and in private collections in Russia, France, Austria, and Germany.
