Artist Comments
Using metallic gold leaf, artist Maya Malioutina depicts a hefty stallion in primitive style. The bold silver background allows the subject to stand out as the main focal point. Part of Maya's Freedom series portraying semi-abstract horses. "The symbolism behind this majestic animal is that of freedom, power, strength, and independence," says Maya.
About the Artist
Maya’s abstract mixed-media artworks are inspired by urban imperfections–cracks in sidewalks, peeling paint, rusted metal. Influenced by the Japanese philosophy of wabi-sabi, Maya embraces the aesthetic flaws of city life, translating daily discoveries into heavily layered and textured paintings. “Some works have close to fifty layers,†she mentions. “I like to layer paint and media slowly, a little at a time.†Maya employs a neutral palette and generous applications of metallic leaf to create meditative yet sumptuous artworks, quietly enticing the viewer.
