Graciosa
"Graciosa" by Tatyana Bondarenko is an abstract expressionist tribute to the dualities of nature, comfort, power, and tranquility. Named after Portugal's serene island of Graciosa, the painting uses dark browns, beige, whites, blacks, and flashes of gold to evoke the island's rugged terrain and peaceful ambiance. The drips of paint across the canvas conjure both the unpredictability and calm inherent to the island's natural landscape. This artwork serves not just as a visual feast, but as a sanctuary that captures the essence of Graciosa's harmonious existence.
