Biography

Ukrainian artist Irena Orlov lives in Los Angeles.
Irena could never imagine her life without art. Having a successful carrier in architecture and design for quite a long time, she began to deal with fine art.
She is an artist whose path in the fine arts has led her to a unique expression of mood and color through collage and mixed media.
The combination of antique and a very clean, crisp modern design sense creates a highly prized, individual art style.
Her images begin spontaneously and give expression to personal creativity and insight. Each piece is unique in design.
Irena often prefers to think of herself as a craftsman, constructing, or interpreting imagery and messages from her conscious and subconscious mind.

Statement

I'm mixed media artist, photographer,designer and illustrator. I create artworks combining photos, paint, paper, pen, old newspapers and documents into collages.My influence is abstraction, decorative, antiques, collectibles and industrial art.
I responded creatively to everything that surrounded me. It’s important for me to concentrate on my feelings, impressions and observations.
I like experimenting and combining incompatible. It’s a stunning experience to see how rummaged things turn into something beautiful and delightful.
