Artist Statement:
Please, visit me on my web
page at: www.ianasophia.com
Thank you!
In my paintings I work towards
a fusion of traditional and
experimental as well as
realistic and abstract
approaches to creating an
environment, where the
familiar dissolves into
landscapes of a physical or an
emotional nature.
This summer I spent many
pensive moments wandering
around the extensive Plum
Island marshes and beaches.
The images have lingered in my
mind. They shimmer in the ever
changing light creating a
language and imagery of of
their own, speaking of
boundless beauty and
abundance. In my most recent
paintings series I have
expressed my desire to capture
some of the radiant ocean
mysticism these places convey.
Iana Sophia's art pulsates
between the seen and
envisioned, the figurative and
abstract. Inspired by a
mystical sensitivity and an
appreciation of nature, these
paintings draw the viewer into
a place of contemplation,
where the secrets of the work
begin to unfold.
Iana Sophia is a painter in
oil and watercolor, originally
from the Czech Republic, she
has been creating and showing
her work in small, independent
local venues in the Boston
Metro area. Previously Iana
worked in Prague, Vienna,
Salzburg and Zurich...

Previously Iana worked in Prague, Vienna, Salzburg and Zurich; she received her masters degree from the Universitaet Wien, in Vienna, Austria.

The morst recent work, titled 'Plum Island Marshes' was created in 2009/10. The source of inspiration was the pristine beauty of the coastal area around 'Plum Island', a nature reseve, located about 50 miles north of Boston.
