About the Item

The painting “My Best” - where chickens appear as women - symbolizes the relationship between a man and a woman. A man leading a chicken on a leash symbolizes his attitude towards his woman. Next to the man there are other chickens, not worse or better than his, but his is the best. The chickens that follow him in a line become a metaphor for repetition, dependence, or the standards that society imposes on women. This image reflects the philosophical question of individuality and freedom of choice, emphasizing monotony and impersonality. The combination of blue skies and orange buildings creates the perfect backdrop for this surreal scene. Blue symbolizes calm and freedom, while bright orange houses can be associated with life's difficulties or a confining everyday framework. The contrast between the objects and their context reinforces the metaphorical nature of the painting. This painting challenges the traditional perception of reality while playing with simple shapes and colors, creating a sense of harmony and mystery. The painting has participated in personal and collective exhibitions more than once.

Xenia Ostrovskaya ist der letzte Neuzugang zum Pool der Künstler, die die Galerie vertritt und ihre witzigen übermalten Postkarten haben schon beim ersten Auftritt auf einer Messe eine fulminante Resonanz gehabt, dem ein „Gallery Statement“ auf der Parallel folgen wird, wo ihre Arbeiten ein eine Installation integriert sind. Seit einigen Jahren konzentriert Xenia Ostrovsakya Ihr Werk auf Übermalungen von alten Postenkarten, denen Sie mit wenigen Pinselstrichen eine neue Botschaft gibt, oder bestehende Botschaften verstärkt und verfremdet. Gerne arbeitet Sie dabei mit Kriegsmotiven, aber auch klassischen alten Ansichtskarten, die oft mit Pflanzen und Tieren (vorzugsweise Schmetterlinge und ihre Puppen).
