Lyubov Ivanishcheva — a contemporary artist from Lipetsk, for whom painting is an exploration of the tangibility of existence. A graduate of VGPGK, she began her active creative work in 2025, immediately establishing herself as a master of texture and the physicality of material.
At the heart of her art — overcoming the two-dimensionality of the canvas. Using texture paste, acrylic, and quartz sand, Ivanishcheva creates complex relief paintings that exist on the border between painting and sculpture. Voluminous, almost architectural brushstrokes, intense, pulsating colors, and a golden glow emerging from the depths — these are her main tools.
Her works — whether dynamic abstractions or figurative compositions fading into the plane of symbols — are, above all, tactile landscapes. They live in dialogue with light: changing depending on the time of day and viewing angle, casting their own shadows, revealing new details and meanings. This variability makes each work "alive" — the process of its perception never ends.
For Ivanishcheva, materials are a language of emotions. Texture paste becomes the matter of time and memory, acrylic — its emotional color, and gold leaf — a quiet, inner light breaking through the thickness of experiences. Her native Lipetsk, her "quiet harbor," provides the necessary space for the focused embodiment of these sensations into physical form.
Her creativity is an invitation to a dialogue that goes beyond the visual. It is an offer to "touch with the gaze" and feel with the skin of the soul. Through the physicality of brushstrokes and relief, she seeks to express a strong inner energy and make emotion tangible. Every texture on her canvases is not just a technique, but a separate story, part of a large personal and universal chronicle of feelings.
