Maria Arendt artist of Moscow
Maria Arendt is a young original and skillful artist with her own distinctive niche in contemporary art life. Her works belong to a rare, uncommon genre — she embroiders them with a religious theme, but they are not icons, as one may think at first glance. M. Arendt unites tradition, and current trends, thus filling old plots with a new interpretation, and classic themes acquire modern meaning due to composition and the sophisticated approach of the artist to her material. Maria Arendt combines embroidery and the application of fragments of authentic old cloths, which add unique flavour of antiquity to her works. Her colors are emotionally expressive, although the artist uses only several main colors and their shades.
Maria Arendt participated in many exhibitions in Russia and abroad her works have won acclaim in both Moscow and London.
