Victoria Potrovitza
As a visual artist, I started by drawing and painting on paper. As I experimented with various media to express my creative ideas, I chose hand embroidery on canvas, not in its traditional form, but as a mean to add extra dimensions to artworks. Stitching with bold, vibrant colored cotton, rayon and metallic threads and sometime mixing acrylic or gouache paints, I create geometric abstract, playful compositions, influenced by my architectural background and the universal symbols of tribal arts. My works are intuitive creations meant to invoke feelings rather than conveying concepts.
