Statement:
Through my work, I try to explore the fragile nature of human relationships, to understand the complex process of the emergence of feelings and connections between two intricate universes. I am inspired by the endless fluctuations and multi-layered experiences in the souls of each participant of this infinite game.
With contrasting colors, dynamic, almost graphic brush lines, I seek to emphasize the emotional impact of the moment, convey the character of the scene and immerse a viewer in a transmitted state, help project this state onto himself. The structure of the pressed wood allows the oil to acquire a new, unconventional sound, increasing the expressiveness of the depicted moment to the maximum.
My work was influenced by a variety of artists and movements, like Russian critical realism and the Peredvizhniki (The Wanderers group), who opposed official academic classicism with its outdated canons. Such artists as Mikhail Vrubel, Filipp Malyavin, Saturnino Herran, Ruprecht von Kaufmann had an impact on my technique. Inspiration comes from everywhere and everything that surrounds me and makes me see the world from a different angle. For example, an important part of what my work has become now is the influence of David Bowie's music.
I strive to combine forms, colors, and art history in order to find a new expressive language of beauty. Searching for interesting images and types, conveying the soul through appearance and gaze – my works are focused on the emotional reading of the human image and the dialectical concept of the human soul.
Vita / Lebenslauf:
Tania Rivilis (b. 1986)
Tania Rivilis began painting at the age of 27, after moving to Germany from Russia in 2012. Working hard on technique and creating her own signature style, just one year later Tania entered the art world with her first solo shows. Tania’s works range from classical to modern expressive style. For several years of working with painting and graphics, the artist held exhibitions in Germany, the Netherlands, and Russia.
In 2016 began a collaboration between Tania Rivilis and Russian jeweler Petr Axenov, which led to many special projects, both for private and state collections. Her two drawings based on “War and Peace” novel by Leo Tolstoy were part of the Axenoff Jewelry House exhibition at the State Historical Museum in Moscow.
Tania’s paintings are now part of museum, gallery, and private collections all over the world, such as state museums of St. Petersburg (Saint Petersburg Museum, Vladimirskiy Palace and Marble Palace), Astoria Hotel (Rocco Forte Hotels), private collection of Bishop of the Russian Orthodox Church Seraphim, private collection of fashion designer Lee Paton, and more.
The work of Tania Rivilis is distinguished by a wide range of themes and a variety of techniques: from classical and academic portraits to contemporary impressionist works, from gala oil portraits to graphic drawings. Her signature style reveals a personal desire of art experiment and paying homage to traditional craftsmanship at the same time: this is a concept of classical art in modern interpretation.
The artist strives to combine forms, colors, and art history in order to find a new expressive language of beauty. Searching for interesting images and types, conveying the soul through appearance and gaze – Tania’s works are focused on the philosophical reading of the human image and the dialectical concept of the human soul.
